My left foot was felt numb and cold for about 5 days and now my left thumb feels cold never felt this before my chiropractor told me today I have pinched nerve on my lower back and upper left shoulder

I have rhomboidal pain, is it possible to know which nerve is affected?

What about a constant dull ache and tension in the tricep and deltoid? Is that a pinched nerve?

I mentioned to a chiro I didn’t want to do a neck adjustment bc I was confident I had a disc issue ,
He did a neck adjustment tilting my head right and pulling up and left and yep, Iv now has tingling going up into my face and jaw on my left side since May .

I got an mri and I have bulging discs in c5 and 6 from what I remember. He took an X-ray AFTER adjusting me to see if he saw disc issues , as if that makes any sense whatsoever? Also his xrays showed nothing and was still wrong.

I believe it’s the thoracic nerve, since the pain was radiating in all the same areas, I almost get paralyzed the day after.

Is there a way for a chiro to reverse the damage this guy did? Or should chirps never mess with someone’s neck with disc issues?

I can’t believe my luck, I only went for a possibly dislocated shoulder and he just coolie cutter adjusted me fully when I didn’t want that. I hate when you tel people EXACTLY What they need to hear and they just ignore you

Thanks, can already feel the relief 🎉

Thank you Dr Jon❤❤❤

Is it normal to feel tingling in one of my arms while I do the floss techniques?

i don’t have a diagnosis but tried the very first exercise and my pain went away within seconds, i’ve been having terrible pain for a few days and it was giving my piercing headaches i’m so glad i found this

Thank you so much! I've been tortured by this 'knife blade' pain in my upper shoulder and neck for months, and just a few reps of only some of these exercises brought a very noticeable change in my pain level. I look forward to even greater relief as I continue to do them. Bless you! I also appreciated the explanations you gave as to the sources of pain and how the exercises work.

Is it possible to have the Unlar nerve impacted without having any neck pain? That’s what I’m going through right now. My neck seems completely fine. It’s just my pinky and ring finger that feel strange,

What is the best flossing for disc osteophyte complex at c5 c6? Median nerve flossing? Any particular one? Desperate for help. I’ve tried all kinds of physio but only cervical traction and maybe flossing but only a bit work. No idea how I go living like this

Can u do all the exercises with switching back and forth to ur left side and right side in between reps or is that to much? Does it cause any problems or issues in the muscle u where not hurting in the first place? I just got done watching ur video just did alittle bit on both sides when it was just upper part neck hurting. My neck and shoulders feel stiff or tight not sure how to explain it is that normal? But the pain & pressure in the upper middle of neck is better i can handle it now & it seemed to get rid of the bad headache i had above my eyes can rest better not in pain. Put a heating pad on just to help with the tightness

Is it normal to have super clicky neck when doing that final exercise? Every time, without fail, my neck bones click really loudly, not like a crunch, more like bones slotting into place

Yr Awesome- Thanx

Love you bro, thx a lot Doctor.

The nerve flossing! You saved my day.

is this like occipital neuralgia? lions mane supplements gave me this symptom for months. do not take lions mane supplements

I woke up with a pinched nerve on the left Scalene muscle area. The pain does not radiate down my arm, but is radiated to the front and back of my neck. I assume this is a pinched nerve. I can barely do the exercises, but will continue and hopefully help.

Thanks doc ❤

Thank you for this information! Working as a prep cook, I injured my shoulder last month lifting something heavy and since then, I've had weakness in my entire arm and a numbness and tingling in my thumb. This is the first video I have found that explained the origin of those symptoms and how to relieve them. Thank you, most grateful.

Please make follow along video. With no talking

Do you have any suggestions for my left tricep cramping and trembling when I stretch out my left arm? I know that I have C3,4,5 6 and 7 herniated since 2017 from an MRI.

Alhamdulillah... I get some relief... I was so worried about it for last 5 years... But now i am getting some relief. ❤️❤️

This video has helped more than 2 months of physiotherapy, osteopathy, acupuncture and massage therapy. Unreal. I'm in Ontario, but I wish I was closer to Newmarket. Thank you!

Dr. Thanks !!! I’m going through so much pain and numbness and no one can figure out what it is, MRIs, CT scans, but not really a diagnose, what u said makes totally sense to me, my pain and tingling starts after I’m sitting, only on my car, sofa, bed with legs up or working on a computer, sitting on a restaurant, doesn’t make worse. Totally it makes sense! Im going to start with ur stretches and flossing .. will let u know how it goes !

This was posted 2 years ago, but it’s perfect timing for me right now. How’d you know I’d need this right now. 😉

Ir shuts up con muy head left si de , that posible?

Thx you Dr. for sharing this! It’s very helpful. I get relief of pain because of your exercise❤

What ifnyou cant lift your shoulder to do these exercises?

Thank you. They helped me a lot

Sing I’m a little tea pot on the last one 😆

😂❤❤❤thank youuuuuuuuuu from Budapest

I’ve been having this burning sensation in my thumb while drumming the past couple years or so and it didn’t really happen before that. It’s to the point that it happens so easily that I pretty much can’t play. My right hand grip is also noticeably weaker and stiffer than my left hand.
I’ve gone to this hand and wrist specialist who thinks it’s carpal tunnel but is unsure because I have no tingling or pain. It’s just in my thumb at the base as well as wrist stiffness and weakness, as well as a tiny bit of pain in my ring finger knuckle that’s constantly there but only if I touch it. I got a cortisone shot in my wrist to see if that helped and it didn’t really help. I also got an MRI that showed nothing was wrong with my neck or any nerves in that area.

Any idea what this could be?

Thank you so much!!! These exercises helped me so much!! This morning I woke up and found myself sitting on the edge of my bed. I don't remember how I got in that position, but I could not move from that position. When I tried to stand up the pain in the left side of my neck was excruciating. I was screaming like a wild animal, and crying in pain until the front of my T-Shirt was wet with my tears. Yes, attempting to STAND increased my left sided neck pain. WTH? So, there I was sitting on the edge of my bed, and I had to pee, but I couldn't move. Meh... It was very scary. The only thing that I could think of was to do my neck stretches that I learned in PT. Those abled me to stand/walk, very, very carefully, and PEE!!! Yeah....but your stretches on this video have helped lower my pain level and am now walking like a 95 year old vs a 105 year old. LOL! Thank you Dr. Saunders!! I will do these everyday, as I did the stretches via my local PT facility. I can't thank you enough!!! XOXO Whew, talk about a bad morning....

These are amazing! Instant relief and so easy to do. Thank you 🙏

Oh my God ,it is true what the bible say ,my people perish for lack of knowledge,i have never heard of pinch merve before ,i had pain in my right arm for a while ,now i have a painful neck while trying to fund the cause ,i see your video .thank you Sir for the knowledge,stay blessed

Jus found you today!!! I jus got a pinched nerve and my left arm gets pins n needles AND MY DELTOID hurts like very bad ache all the time for the past 3 weeks....I am going to chiropractor to no avail. I will try these 6 and I know it will help.

Thank you so so much, both the stretching and exercises helped me sooooo much, I appreciate you ❤💯

Do you have an excersise to releive butt muscles that connect to lower back? None of the docs so far gave me any good excerise at all. My muscles are so tight due to constant stress and anxiety. I have so much pain, which goes away only when I have a break from stress.

I’ve had a mri their no disc bulging but but my lower back it’s my upper back and now neck that hurt I’ve had pain and tingling in my back
