What are thoracic radiculopathies?

Thoracic radiculopathies refer to conditions that cause pain, weakness, or numbness in the chest, abdomen, and back as a result of nerve root irritation or damage in the thoracic (upper back) spinal region. This can occur due to a variety of causes such as herniated disc, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, spinal tumors, or spinal injuries. Treatment options may include physical therapy, pain medication, and in some cases, surgery.
