Is Acupuncture Treatment Advisable For Pain Caused Due To Bulging Disc?
Hello-i have a bulging disc and pinched nerve in c5. I have pain in my neck, left shoulder, arm and hand with numbness in thumb and forefinger. I will start physical therapy next week, but the pain is constant and wears me out. Would acupuncture provide pain relief?

Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the spinal degenerative disease then it has to be managed accordingly with medical or surgical treatment beside these nothing would help, neither it should be tried hope this information helps.
