Suggest Remedy For Pain In Left Side Of Head Due To Pinched Nerve

Hello, Dr.
I have been having pains in my left side of my head and sometimes caanot turn to the left side due to pian in my neck area. Saw a Neurologist and stated I have pinched nerve. He suggested injections to my neck I refused. I opted for therapy. Will therapy make my complanits better premanently cured my pinched nerve or the therapy is only temporary?
My MD did not say any further.

Thank you.

None of the treatments as such is definitive in pinched nerves.
The best you can do is get the injection in the neck, start neck muscle exercises an use a cervical soft collar once in a while, as you travel or work
