What Is Nerve Compression Syndrome?
10. Prognosis
Some types of nerve compression syndrome resolve on their own with a few days of rest. However, if symptoms persist, you should schedule an appointment with a doctor as soon as possible.
Treatment for nerve compression syndrome has the best chance for success if it occurs soon after the onset of symptoms. Delaying treatment can allow nerve damage to occur. This may be permanent and the effects irreversible.
