Pinched Nerve Neck/Back/Arm Pain
Ever since i fell off my mountain bike last year and landed on my neck, every now again i'll get a pinched nerve in the bottom of my neck/top spine which spreads to the top of my arms, now usually it goes within a week but it's come back again and i've been in agony for 2 weeks now, Even on Saturday i woke up crying because i was in so much pain and couldn't move for ages!Been to doctors who have referred me to physio in the hospital but it could be a month or more before i get an appointment there just wondering does anyone have any good home exercises to do?
And wondering too does anyone know if posture support braces like this actually work?

what I would say though is before you spend £20 on a brace, spend £40 on a private physio session.
I could just have been lucky but I found that the private physio was much better than the nhs Try a local Chiropractor. Cured my Sciatica when I had it. I also had a long wait for NHS treatment and decided to go private. Roughly £45.00 per session in London. I would second that, I go for "maintenance" about every three months.I don't know where you are, but I'm sure someone will here will be able to recommend someone local.
