Very nice! You wouldn't happen to have any tips to help me recover from thoracic outlet syndrome, would you? ๐Ÿ˜…

I'm currently working in cardiology so it's a little bit out of my scope. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ It doesn't seem to be well studied but you can find some informations here. Have you ever consulted a physiotherapist ? They are more specialized in pain management than exercise physiologists.

Hey thanks for the reply! Yes, I've met with my primary care provider and been taking corticosteroids for inflammation which seems to be dramatically helping. I guess I was wondering about stretching vs non-stretching and if you had any knowledge of it, but no worries either way- it is healing!

I hope you will heal soon ! The litterature recommand stretching and progressive resistance training of the muscle groups involved in the movements that limit you. ๐Ÿ˜Š
