[|Human|] I have degenerative disc disease in the cervical spine. I also some mild foraminal stenosis at C2-3 and C3-4. I have a burning sensation in my chest skin that goes clear down to my nipples. This nerve pain has been occurring since 2011 minus the nipple involvement which started about 8 months ago. The discomfort in my nipples is bordering on intense burning pain. Is this all related to the changes in my cervical spine? The foraminal narrowing did not show up in a n MRI that was taken 3-25-2013 but did show up on an MRI 4-28-2014.
