Greetings. I’m a physician (not PM&R) and I’m dealing with a disc protrusion at c5/c6 impinging the exciting nerve root. My primary sx is just pain. Ive been recommended to get PRP injection by friends who are ortho spine and online some folks on physician community are also recommending it though there seems to be mixed support. Wondering what the experts here think about PRP for this situation? Hard to find any studies online beyond case series. Thanks in advance.

Got into kettlebell training a few months ago and was well on my way to finishing ABF with double 20kg bells. Was looking and feeling great.

Then started having bad neck pain and severe trapezius spasm on the left side. Got an MRI which showed a disc bulge on the left pinching my C5/C6 nerve root.

I’m feeling better now after some rest, PT, and steroids but i’m wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and was able to return to doing over head work?
