Several months ago I started getting numbness in my left hand fingers - the pinky and next two fingers. After a few months my right forearm started getting numb and my right hand weakened. I lean forward on my job all day with neck strain.
Nerve conduction is still good, so says the neurologist.
Any thoughts on what might be happenning. Of course my advice is to seek a chiropractic evaluation and possible treatment prior to anything more invasive. The biomechanics, on a segmental level, in the cervical spine can be corrected to resolve the abnormal forces on the disc. Discs are not capable of acting alone and require forces from the vertebrae above and below to create a problem. When the biomechanics are correct, any force of the disc to the posterior will usually be stopped by what is known as the posterior longitudinal ligament.
