A dermatome map of the body (like the link below) will help you determine which area of the neck/spine match up with the area of your arm that hurts. You can try alternating ice and heat on the affected area. Start with ice. If the nerve is badly inflamed, heat can aggravate it. Will pray you get relief soon. http://www.backpain-guide.com/Chapter_Fig_folders/Ch06_Path_Folder/4Radiculopathy.html
