Written by an AI model from ClinicalTrials.gov eligibility criteria and checked on a sample basis. Please confirm against the original criteria.

Who might be able to join this trial:

• People aged between 18 and 70 years.
• People who have had ongoing neck pain with arm pain following a nerve pathway in the neck for at least 3 months.
• People whose average pain level has been at least 4 out of 10 over the past 7 days.
• People who have been diagnosed with a chronic cervical nerve root problem caused by a disc herniation in the neck, confirmed by both a clinical examination and an MRI scan.
• People who have not had enough relief from standard treatments such as physical therapy, medication, or exercise therapy.
• People who are able to give written agreement to take part and follow the study procedures.

Who may not be able to join:

• People who show signs of spinal cord compression in the neck, or whose neurological symptoms are getting progressively worse.
• People where a serious spinal condition is suspected, such as an infection or cancer in the spine.
• People for whom a spinal injection would not be considered safe — for example, due to uncontrolled blood clotting problems, blood-thinning medication that has not been appropriately managed, or an active infection.
• People who are pregnant.
• People who have had previous neck surgery, or a steroid injection into the neck spine within a specified time period before the trial (confirm with trial site for exact timeframe).
• People with severe muscle, bone, or neurological conditions that could make it unsafe to take part in an exercise program.
• People whose symptoms do not clearly match what is shown on their imaging results.
