What Are pinched nerves you may be wondering? If you have ever had a pinched nerve then you know that is a painful ongoing pressure that is applied to a nerve either in your back or shoulders or anywhere on your body. However many people tend to experience a pinched nerve in their back.

This is largely due to a herniated disk that is pressing on their spine. It can become very uncomfortable and painful and you may begin to experience symptoms such as; weakness, tenderness, prickly sensation, stabbing sensation or even a burning sensation.

It becomes such an uncomfortable feeling and painful that it makes it difficult to be able to accomplish anything during the day. When you do happen to experience the pain in your back then it will affect other parts of your body such as your legs, arms, neck because they are attached to your spinal cord.

So what brings on pinched nerves? Well it can be related to several instances such as:

Hard physical labor
Mattress that you sleep on
Stress
Shoes that you may be wearing
Posture

Basically there is no one reason that you may be experiencing pinched nerves. As a matter of fact I had one a couple weeks ago and woke up out of a deep sleep because it felt as though I had pulled something in my neck. In fact I was unable to turn my neck to the right for several days. I had to miss work and sit on the couch letting it work itself out.

Your body is trying to tell you that it needs some attention. The truth is that many of us do not take care of our bodies the way that we should; in fact we are constantly slouching and not providing it the proper exercise. Remember when you mother used to tell you “don’t slouch or you’ll regret it someday.” Well that is no lie; in fact if you are having back muscle pain it could be largely in part due to the fact that you did not listen to your mother’s words.
