I asked Dr. Ando about it and he felt that pec minor can be dealt with in therapy and should never require surgery. After going through therapy with Dr. Ando and Spousa, I lean their way that pec minor should be dealt with in therapy.

That being said, everyone doesn't have access to the same therapists or are as diligent with therapy and home maintenance exercise as others.
I'm not even sure that mine are pec minor issues because it feels more like the teres major and minor and subscalpularis?- all around my under arms. The pt didnt really help me with this and is the most stubborn to resolve.
When I see Dr. J next I am going to ask if he can do a pec minor block?

I will look for the atrticles and post them here-there are 2.
