stretched nerves
Quote"There's also some literature that I've found that puts together what seems like a fairly medically obvious case for scapular winging and LTN dysfunction without loss of nerve signal, in that the altered position and rhythm of the scapula compresses the brachial plexus, narrows the thoracic outlet, and grinds on muscles, tendons, and nerves it shouldn't be able to.
I'm too new in the forum to be allowed to post links in my comments, but I can message you some links to articles on this."
Thanks SnappleofDiscord
From my experience surgery wasn't really an option, as I was advised the nerve was tractioned along its whole course. During rehab/tmt I was given the impression that many LTN/ brachial plexus injuries are "stretch" injuries rather than compression injuries eg water skiing. I don't know how accurate that is?
I'd be very interested in looking at the articles you mentioned, if it's not too much trouble to get the reference details/links from you?
cheers
