Subject: Pinched Nerve? I recently had a strange experience. I fell asleep at my computer, upon awakening I found my right hand to be asleep, or so I thought. After several minutes I realized the blood circulation was not bringing my hand back to life. I went to see a Neurologist and he said I suffered a pinched nerve. However, he has yet to inform me on exactly how long my hand will be inoperative. My hand hangs limp from the wrist and I have very little control of my fingers. I have been seeing a muscle therapyst, visiting him 3 days a week. But still very little improvement. It is closing in on six weeks since the injury took place. Still no information on how long this will go on. Could you tell me how long a pinched nerve normally takes to heal? | |
