nerve damage

I had a cage put in between c5-c6 4/29 after a car accident, which ruptured that disc & 3 bulging disc.I saw my chiropractor the day after my accident & he used manual manipulation, massage therapy, traction & ultrasound. My question is..My chiropractor continued to crack my neck 9 times after recieving my MRI report, until the day I saw my Neurosurgeon & he told me no more manual Adjustments to my neck. When I had surgery I was told that the nerve had been pinched for so long & so hard that there was major damage & possibly permanant damage to that nerve. For weeks now I have pain in the base of my skull on the left side to the base of my neck, for the past week and a half my left shoulder & elbow has numbness, down to my thumb & first two fingers.Did my chiropractor cause more damage by continuing to crack my neck?
