How to use "Pinched" in context?
nerve
A "pinched" nerve is a common complaint that can adversely affect a person's quality of life. A "pinched" nerve can occur as the result of a narrow space in the neck or spine. The nerve can be compressed as a result of a bump, bone, or other bony element. The pressure can also be caused by a herniated disc, a tumor, or arthritis. If the nerve is compressed, it can cause a variety of symptoms, including tingling, numbness, and restricted movement. If left untreated, a "pinched" nerve can eventually become symptomatic and require surgery.
