Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Treatment for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome includes a number of exercises designed to stretch open the tissues of the thoracic outlet, which can become constricted, compressing nerves and blood vessels passing through the neck, shoulder and arms. Symptoms include:

• Burning or aching pain in the arms, hands, and neck
• Pain in the pectoral area below the clavicle
• Pain in the axillary area, and the upper back, as in the trapezius and rhomboid area
• Discoloration of the hands
• Temperature differential between the hands
• Weakness and tingling in the hand and arm muscles
• Frozen shoulder

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome can be the underlying cause of frozen shoulder and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome 

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is one of the most common repetitive motion injuries, causing patients to experience numbness, tingling or burning sensations in the fingers, or pain in the hands and wrists or loss of grip strength. Weakness and atrophy of muscles in the hand may occur if the condition remains untreated.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is thought to be caused by repetitive movement and manipulation, and can be exacerbated by forceful and repetitive use of the hand and wrists in industrial occupations. Dr. Eldridge is the leading provider in Denver for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Treatment.
