Part 3 – Trapped nerve in the neck
If you have pins and needles, numbness and pain in your hand in any distribution it is likely due to a nerve compression in your neck. Often in this case the sensation is worsened/relieved by movement of the head in different positions.
This condition should be checked ASAP as if left, this condition often gets worse and may need surgery, but if caught early it can usually be effectively treated with conservative management.
