What Causes Pain In Arms And Losing Strength And Have A Pinched Nerve In Neck?
About six months ago my son felt like he got a pinched nerve in the back of his neck. he suddenly started having pain in his arms, and his voice got hoarse. His voice is still hoarse, and it s like he runs out of air when he talks. His right arm has loss muscle mass and he can hardly grip anything with his right hand. He is rapidly losing strength in both his arms but especially in his right one.
