Could Manipulation Under Anaesthesia For Frozen Shoulder Cause Pinched Nerve?
I had a MUA for a frozen shoulder last Thursday. I m at home doing the passive motion chair exercises 6-8 hrs a day. Don t go back for FOLLOW-up visit till Sept 4th. Started onto ing these sharp, tingling pains in ny neck maybe 2 days ago. They won t stop. Could this MUA have caused a pinched nerve somewhere?

Hi,
I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to a pinched nerve or a discal herniation in the cervical spine causing radicular pain. It could be related to MUA, but there are also a lot of other causes to consider. I recommend consulting with your neurologist for a careful neurological exam, a nerve conduction study and a cervical spine CT scan. Meanwhile, I would recommend holding a cervical collar, which will help relieve the pain.
Hope to have been helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Kind regards,
Dr. Aida
