简要总结
This study will compare two physiotherapy techniques for people with neck and arm pain due to pinched nerves (cervical radiculopathy). One technique is nerve exercises (neural mobilization) that help the nerve move freely. The other is muscle and tissue release (myofascial release) that reduces tightness in the neck and arm. Adults aged 32–65 years with one-sided neck and arm pain will take part for 2 weeks. We will check changes in pain, neck movement, and daily function using standard questionnaires and tools. The study may help find better treatment options for neck and arm pain caused by pinched nerves.
