symptoms of c5 c6 herniation of disc
I was in a car accident on November 10. A MRI was performed and i was referred to a neurosurgeon. I went and seen him and was ordered to wear a hard cast for approximately 6 weeks, and then i will be reevaluated, with likely physical therapy being assigned. I was diagnosed with a c5 c6 herniation without myleopathy. My symptoms are weakness in my hands,feeling of fatigue in my forearms, and numbness in my thumb and first finger (usually left hand, but sometimes both hands). I also have headaches and neck pain. Are these the usual symptoms of a c5/c6 herniation? What other symptoms does the herniation sometimes show? I am going back to see my NS in 2 weeks and I just would like to have an idea of what is going on. Thank you for your time.
