One interesting way to note if your pec minor is very dominant is to see your hands. If they are internally rotated, chances are pec minor tightness exists. Basically when you stand, back of your arms face forward as versus thumbs.

When your hands fall asleep, pay attention to what fingers fall asleep first, or go cold first/most. Then compare the hand chart: https://nervesurgery.wustl.edu/ev/ha...s/default.aspx Then compare this to the where the nerves run through the Thoracic Outlet: https://www.amtamassage.org/articles/3/MTJ/detail/1666 |

Peck minor causes more tenderness accross chest and under collarbone apply pressure from the front scalene muscle go into spasm an pull up on the 1st rib apply pressure from the top into your anterior and medial insertion points you will be able to tell a difference usually scalene and 1rib is the primary problem and peck minor is more of a secondary entrapment point I've had a 1st rib resection with anterior and medialscalenectomy and a peck minor tenotomy peck minor relieved anterior shoulder/sub scapula/and rib pain is was out pt and back to work on day 2 no meds 1st ribeesectionwasnt horrible but I was down for about 3 weeks nothing like the drama people hype if up to be but everyone is different?

Hi Canadian RN! I'm a Canadian Ultrasonographer! I was DX. With Ntos on my right side that I've been doing ultrasound with for 14 years and recently had a scalenectomy and 1st rib resection by a Doctor that came up from the Mayo Clinic and specializes in this procedure! Trust me when I say I did my homework! I am 2 mos. Post op and continue to have symptoms. I was OK for awhile but now I'm 2.5 mos. Post op and all the symptoms have returned! Cold hand, discolouration, ring finger pain, wrist pain (mainly radial aspect). How did your Doctor determine the pec. Issue?? I've been told by PT that it's foreshortened and atrophied but no surgical intervention. any advice would really help. Thank you.
