Hi everyone, well I've had neck pains / stiffness since my car accident 5 years ago, last summer I started to get weakness in my left arm and in both hands, my left being the worst. Sometimes I have pins and needles in my feet and some numb patches in my arms which comes and goes although my left arm weakness remains the same.

I have just had a cervical spine mri last thursday and am waiting the results. I just wanted to introduce myself and see if anyone else is having the same symptoms as me because I feel all alone in this situation. I look foward to hearing from some of you x

Hello,

I also had a car accident with severe neck pain, I have pain in my left arm, bicep, forearm and fingers, had an MRI and shows a herniated disc at C7-T1, pressing on the C7 nerve.

Sometimes I have pain/tingling in both hands but mostly with the left.

Since an injection I now have pain/numbness/tingling in my left ankle and top of foot, sometimes knee. Was told this cannot be coming from the cervical area, it's from the lumbar region?

Not to scare you with all this, you just never know so hopefully your MRI will be useful.

In my opinoin you need acupuncture.
Wishing you good luck.

I am right there with you. I just had my cervical spine MRI and I'm waiting to hear from the doc. You are definitely not alone. I wish you well.

I also had a mva and have the same thing.
