Shoulder/neck pain, pretty severe, numbness in right index finger. It's been going on for over 2 months now. Initially, I thought I slept wrong, but it never stopped. Wasn't severe at first but has been getting progressively worse. Numbness started a month ago, and pain became more severe this week.

That would be too easy! Seriously, why do people think asking for medical advice on a message board for LSU sports is a great idea?

No responsible health care provider with the expertise to make a diagnosis based on your history would give you one over the internet. Go to the doctor.

Sounds like AIDS but you can never be too sure. Have you been experimenting with men recently?

There's a drug you can take but its 5,500% more expensive now. Good luck with the aids.

I'll confirm this diagnosis. You're going to need an operation.

Make up a hurt at work story to give to your employer so they'll pay for everything.

Just kidding, don't do that.

Pinched nerve in the neck: C6 radiculopathy.

See an MD who specializes in spinal conditions for thorough evaluation. Can be treated non-operatively.

You need to vertically stretch your neck. You need some real horsepower for this. Don't worry about ripping your head off, it almost never happens.

Probably a pinched nerve or bulging disc. You should see an orthopaedist first. Then probably follow up with a good chiropractor. As an aside, did you switch your pillow you sleep with recently before your pain started?

He'll probably need a spinal amputation. Have they mastered the heads living in jars thing yet?
