I have experienced a pinched nerve in my neck twice in the last year, none prior. I m in my mid-40s and was wondering whether heavy physical activities such as weight lifting are exacerbating the problem, along with bad posture, which I am trying to resolve by exercises and improved posture. Aside from a crystal ball, it would be great to proactively adjust my exercise program for the long term in a way that enables long term health. I worry being 6 foot 5 inches tall of having spine/neck problems as I move toward the golden years. Are there any specialists/tests that could help provide some insight on which types of activities would be ill advised for me? I would rather develop a long term plan that react to a ruined back later on, if possible. Thank you!
