Nerve Pain and Numbness in Passaic County, New Jersey

Has numbness and tingling in your fingers made typing difficult? Do you feel pain shooting up your arm to your shoulder? If so, you may have carpal tunnel syndrome. Dr. Anthony Fava, DC and The Advanced Center for Injury and Wellness Care offer a solution to patients seeking relief from nerve pain and numbness in Passaic County, New Jersey.

Nerves, which help you to feel and move, may become pinched, or compressed, secondary to trauma, repetitive stress, or a variety of other conditions. Carpal tunnel syndrome involves the compression of the median nerve, which carries sensory information from the palm as well as parts of the thumb and first three fingers. This nerve runs through the carpal tunnel, located at the base of the hand. Tendons, which also run through the carpal tunnel, may become irritated or enlarged from trauma or overuse. The space in the carpal tunnel is limited, so the enlarged tendons may compress the median nerve. This can be very painful. Symptoms of this often debilitating condition include numbness and tingling in the fingers as well as shooting pains that may travel up the arm. Dr. Fava offers non-surgical, non-invasive solutions to patients seeking relief from this often debilitating condition. Through targeted physical therapy and chiropractic manipulation, innumerable patients have been able to resume their lives free of pain.

Dr. Fava combines the fields of physical therapy and massage with chiropractic medicine to provide patients with high care. Each patient is carefully evaluated so that his or her unique needs may be addressed. Treatment is aimed at the whole patient, not just the injured area, ensuring lasting results.

Conditions treated include:

- Sciatica
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Bulging Discs
- Herniated Discs
