Mine was wc related.Started out sprain strain cervical arm and hand.It never calmed down.I waited 18 mo for approval for surgery.No blocks .Pt didnt help only aggrivated.Testing mild bulge disk c-6/7. Doppler study pos.I had the rib resection sympathectomy and scalenectomy. Surgeon said I had anomolies cong defect.I do regret having the sympathectomy.I have TOS & RSD
I would suggest getting as many opions as you can. Have you tried botox inj or blocks? Breaking the pain cycle early can help.Mild muscle relaxers and gentle stretching.Physical therapy can help and can agrivate.Know your limit.They did cervical traction on me (ouch).And ice..
You are in the right place for help and support so many caring people.
