- Home Care: Heat/cold therapy and gentle stretching exercises.
- Advanced Treatments: Corticosteroid injections or nerve blocks if pain persists.
- Surgery: Considered for severe cases unresponsive to other treatments.
Lifestyle and Prevention
- Maintain good posture, exercise regularly, and manage weight to prevent recurrence.
