Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) occurs when blood vessels or nerves between the collarbone and first rib are compressed, causing pain, numbness, and weakness in the shoulder and arm. This condition can significantly impact daily activities and quality of life. Factors such as repetitive movements, trauma, or anatomical abnormalities contribute to TOS, affecting many or our residents.
Symptoms of TOS include pain in the neck and shoulders, numbness or tingling in the fingers, and weakness in the arm. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent long-term complications. Our team specializes in diagnosing and treating TOS using advanced techniques.
Diagnostic procedures may include physical exams, imaging tests like X-rays, MRI, or nerve conduction studies to assess the severity of compression. Treatment options range from physical therapy and medications to relieve symptoms to surgical procedures to remove the source of compression.
