Commonly referred to as a pinched nerve, radiculopathy is injury or damage to nerve roots in the area where they leave the spine. This condition can affect anyone and can be the result disc degeneration, disc herniation or other trauma.
Lumbar radiculopathy is an inflammation of a nerve root in the lower back, which causes symptoms of pain or irritation in the back and down the legs. This condition usually involves the sciatic nerve and therefore is also called sciatica.

Anterior Cervical Diskectomy and Fusion (ACDF) ACDF is the most commonly performed procedure to treat cervical radiculopathy. The procedure involves removing the problematic disk or bone spurs and then stabilizing the spine through spinal fusion.
If left undiagnosed and untreated, cervical radiculopathy can cause severe neck pain that extends to the chest, arms, upper back, and/or shoulders. Over time, the weakness in the limbs can slow down reflexes, thereby inducing severe incoordination that affects the person's daily life.
Cervical radiculopathy is often caused by "wear and tear" changes that occur in the spine as we age, such as arthritis. In younger people, it is most often caused by a sudden injury that results in a herniated disk. In some cases, however, there is no traumatic episode associated with the onset of symptoms.
Radiculopathy Treatment Options Medication, such as pain relievers, muscle relaxers and anti-inflammatory drugs, to reduce pain and inflammation. Steroid injections or oral steroids to relieve swelling and inflammation around the nerve root. Activity modification to prevent worsening of the pain.
