i really really hurt my bp doing a nerve glide where i turn my head and extend my arm from one side so i think its a stretch injury but would that give me scar tissue? my ROM is normal except for when my rib creeps up.

interestingly, back when i was in a lot of pain i couldnt straighten my arms out from my side without my elbow nerve being pulled.

my pt does this thing now where she works on my neck and my first rib then slowly straightens my arm out from my side (with my hand flexed back). i think its called the upper limb tension test(?)

something along that line. each time she does it my arm is going farther. whos to say though this is from what she does or time passing and my nerves healing and/or the magnesium i am taking.

i never hear anyone here discussing this technique so i wonder how much its going to help me.

how did you hurt yourself during a nerve glide? I do them everday 3 times a day and i get pretty vigourous at times and i think they are the main reason my neuro symtpoms have disspeared. Nerve glides create a clear path for the nerve to travel along they also help break up any scar tissue along the way as explained to me by a chiro. I feel a lil funny nerve feeling in my hands after a nevre glide lasts about a minute or 2 but when everything settles i feel good.

how bad is your tos?

i really really can't do them. i used to try many many times. im not sure why. after i did a nerve glide involving turning the head and extending my arm (like a "talk to the hand" motion) i was bedridden several hours later. that is when the nerve pain really kicked in. before then my pain was all in my arms.

i am hypermobile so its possible that i turned my neck too far and overstretched the nerve? but that was in OCTOBER and i still get itching burning down my left arm. it used to be both arms

consider yourself lucky you can do nerve glides. i am lucky i dont get spasms very often.

i just realized this doesnt make sense lol

my neck ROM is normal in and of itself, no arms involved.
