Name one common symptom of cervical radiculopathy.

Cervical radiculopathy is a condition resulting from a pinched nerve in the cervical spine, often leading to specific symptoms. One of the hallmark symptoms of cervical radiculopathy is pain that radiates down the arm. This occurs due to the nerve roots in the cervical region being affected by compression or irritation, often from herniated discs or bone spurs. As these nerves are responsible for sensation and motor function in the arms, when they are compromised, individuals may experience pain, numbness, or weakness that radiates along the pathway of the nerve, typically into the shoulders, arms, and hands. This radiating pain is distinct from symptoms associated with other conditions of the spine, such as lower back pain, headaches, or numbness in the legs, which are not characteristic of cervical radiculopathy.
