Is Goosebumps, Neck Bone Spurs And Spinal Stenosis Due To Pinched Nerve?
I have a history of migraine, which I take topamax for, I am seeing a cardiologist for an irregular heartbeat which he has resolved with meds, I have sleep apnea which is getting better with weight loss- I am now getting goosebumps on my left thigh. I do have bone spurs in my neck and spinal stenosis in my lower back, could it be from a pinched nerve?

Hello, Thanks for your query. It seems you are suffering from degenerative disc disease & it occurs due to repetitive overload or stress to the disc & it increases the risk of disc herniation & spinal canal stenosis. It causes pinched nerve. You need to get an MRI scan of the area done and consult a neurophysician for proper diagnosis and treatment. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
