I have used cold packs (aka "ice packs") on the clavicle area to good effect. 15 mins on, 15 mins off and 15 mins on. This was for symptoms in that area. By the time I started using it, I was having minimal arm symptoms, so I'm not sure if it helps with downstream pain.

Florian maybe you could be cryogenically frozen until they can find a therapy that cures you.

NO GO for those with, cardiovascular, Reynauds Syndrome, peripheral arterial occlusive disease etc, etc.

Yep and anyone with RSD stay away from this kind of treatment. It can cause it to spread. Ice is bad.
