Default Types of TOS

Hi everyone,

New here, but it has been really comforting reading all of your posts. Is it possible to have two different types of TOS? Or can neurogenic TOS cause vascular compression?

I'm showing the following signs on my left side:
1. venous - visible veins in the chest & shoulder and swollen/red arm
2. neurogenic - shoulder leans forward, bone in back (scapula?) sticks out and fatigue in the arm

I also have a bruise on my left upper arm (looks like broken capillaries) and sometimes get pain in my left index finger.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.
