Radiculopathy Relief in Downtown Shelbyville, Shelbyville TN
Radiculopathy is the medical term for pain, numbness, or weakness caused by irritation or compression of a spinal nerve root, and it can originate in the neck or lower back. Because the symptoms follow the specific nerve's pathway, they often show up far from the spine itself - in a hand, arm, foot, or leg.
Treating Radiculopathy in Downtown Shelbyville
Physically demanding jobs put extra strain on the spine, which is part of why radiculopathy shows up so often among workers whose daily routine involves repeated lifting or awkward postures. Dr. Wesley Stewart has spent 29 years helping Bedford County patients recover from exactly this kind of workplace strain.
Around Shelbyville's historic Public Square, we see radiculopathy often among factory and trade workers whose jobs involve repeated lifting or twisting.
