What is Radiculopathy and How Does it Affect You?

Radiculopathy occurs when one or more nerves in the spine become compressed or irritated. This often happens due to age-related changes like bone spurs or herniated discs, but can also result from injuries or other conditions. The affected nerves typically radiate pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness to the area they serve, such as the arms, legs, or lower back.  Common types of radiculopathy include:

  • Cervical Radiculopathy: Affects the neck, causing pain that can radiate down the arm.
  • Thoracic Radiculopathy: Affects the middle back, causing pain that can wrap around the chest or abdomen.
  • Lumbar Radiculopathy (Sciatica): Affects the lower back, causing pain that can radiate down the leg.

Recognizing the Symptoms of Radiculopathy

The symptoms of radiculopathy can vary depending on the affected nerves.  Common symptoms include:

  • Pain: Sharp, burning, or electric-like pain that radiates along the path of the affected nerve.
  • Numbness or Tingling: A pins-and-needles sensation in the affected area.
  • Muscle Weakness: Difficulty moving or lifting the affected limb.
  • Loss of Reflexes: Decreased or absent reflexes in the affected area.
