Understanding Neck Disc Problems
Neck pain radiating down the arm, accompanied by tingling in the fingers, is often a sign of a slipped disc in the cervical spine. The neck consists of small bones called vertebrae, separated by discs that act as cushions, allowing for movement. When a disc in the neck weakens, its center may bulge out, pressing on nearby nerves and causing pain.
