I started having problems when I was about 18 but I've heard of people younger than that.

Yes, a teenager can have tos.

I've seen other teenagers with it. There was a 19 year old swimmer (I think) who used to post. Anyone who does repetitive motions or has a cervical rib is susceptible. And with computer use skyrocketing, I think we'll be seeing people get it at a younger age.

Take care.

Take care.

With many different high school and college sports requiring athletes to do weight lifting, you will see more cases for this reason as well.
