FAQs

TOS is a condition where the nerves or blood vessels between the collarbone and the first rib are compressed, causing pain and discomfort.
Symptoms include pain, numbness, tingling, weakness in the arms, and swelling in the upper extremities, often worsened by overhead activities.
It can be caused by anatomical abnormalities, poor posture, repetitive movements, trauma, or extra ribs, leading to compression of nerves or vessels.
Diagnosis involves a physical exam, imaging tests (X-rays, MRI, CT scan), and nerve conduction studies to identify compression or anatomical issues.
Treatment includes physical therapy, pain management, posture correction, and in severe cases, surgery to remove anatomical obstructions or decompress the area.
Physical therapy helps strengthen and stretch muscles, improve posture, and increase space in the thoracic outlet to relieve nerve or vessel compression.
Surgery may be needed if conservative treatments like therapy and medications fail to relieve symptoms, or if there is significant vascular or nerve damage.
Surgical options may include removing the first rib, removing muscle tissue, or decompressing nerves or blood vessels to restore normal circulation and function.
Risks include infection, bleeding, nerve damage, or recurrence of symptoms, though surgery is generally safe and effective when performed by experienced surgeons.
Recovery time varies, but most patients experience significant relief after physical therapy or surgery, with full recovery typically taking a few months.
