What Causes Tingling Effect And Tightness In The Back?
i have a pain in my back, under my shoulder blade it feels like. its not sharp pain but when i move my head forward i can feel the pain and then it is a sharp pain...i have tightening around that area and sometimes tingling and tightness that comes and goes in my arm
This is initial stage of cervical disc syndrome and if precautions are not taken, may lead to cervical disc prolapse too. CDS may, however be due to intervertebral disc space reduction due to any reason that restricts free movement of neck and exerting pressure on nerves emanating from cervical spine and going to arm. It may be due to osteophytes too but that's generally in later age. Symptoms are similar.
Physiotherapy and herbal decoctions are the best bet. Otherwise pain killers will make you dependable on them and cause side effects. Pain killers will also render ineffective after some time.
If interested, pl ask direct question to know more about cervical support, herbals and decoction etc to keep life happy by prevention of progress of intervertebral disc disease.
All the best.
