A pinched nerve results from pressure on a nerve from surrounding bone, muscle, cartilage, or other tissue. This generally causes pain, numbness, or tingling sensations and may even lead to impaired function. A pinched nerve can occur almost anywhere in the body, but the spinal column, with its complex skeletal structure and many nerve roots, is a common site. Most pinched nerves that occur in the spine occur in the neck or low back region as opposed to the mid-back.
