Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist 's  Response
hi,

Thank you for providing the brief history of you.

A thorough neuromuscular assessment is advised with MRI

As the numbness, tingling sensation, radiating pain, etc are symptoms of pinched nerve for which an MRI is recommended. Post which, patients are mostly guided to under go physical therapy sessions as there is a need to improve the strength in the spinal muscles to regain the anatomical positioning of the spine. Also, research supports that physical therapy has been successful in majority of cases.

In my clinical practice, patients with similar complains are recommended physical therapy and majority of them respond well.
