Ruptured C6, C7 From Tennis Injury. Faint Feeling And Tingling Sensation. Is It Due To Neck Injury?
Hi. I have a ruptured C6 and C7 from a tennis accident in January 2010. Since then I have rehabbed back with bands balls and weights and playing 5.0 tennis. Since July 12 I have been experiencing tingling in extremities and feeling like I am going to faint. This occurs out of nowhere intermittently. Do you think this is from my neck injury? Thank you.

tingling can occur due to pressure of a slipped disc on nerves.
pl. get checked with your doctor.
