You need to be physically examined. Might.
Most definitely! Especially if the nerve is being pinched from tight muscles or muscle spasms, which is quite frequently the case! Also, anti-inflammatory medication such as motrin will help reduce nerve irritation and discomfort.
Good luck. Pinched nerves are no fun!

A tense muscle can cause nerve impingement. Stretching, heat and daily massage to the muscle group can help alleviate a tense muscle as well. If no relief, you can take a muscle relaxant to help force the muscle to relax and relieve the nerve impingement.
