Acupuncture treatment for a pinched nerve in the upper back Sections A pinched nerve in the upper back often presents with symptoms of numbness, tingling, sharp pain and twitching in the shoulders, upper arm and/or the upper back.
The treatment of a pinched nerve depends upon the location and the cause. Resting the affected area is often very effective, especially in cases of injury caused by repetitive activities. Physical therapy is frequently beneficial when a pinched nerve is caused by problems in the neck or low back. Exercises may strengthen the back or core muscles and decrease or eliminate pressure on a nerve root. Over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen and naproxen may be helpful. Injections of corticosteroids (an anti-inflammatory medication) may also be beneficial for many types of pinched nerves. For cases of carpal tunnel syndrome, splinting or bracing the wrist is often used.
