Any real options for peripheral nerve damage

About 10 years ago I had surgery (foraminotomy) to remove bone spurs C5-C7. Unfortunately, by the time of the surgery, I already had damage to the nerve root. As a result, I have some weaknesses on my right side (triceps, upper pecs, finger extensors). I'm still quite functional and generally healthy, but I'd still be happy to get this strength back and rectify the imbalances. Are there any treatments that are both currently available and have a reasonable chance of helping out here? (Neuromodulation, stem cells, exosomes, etc.) Thanks
