Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and Auto Injury
Understanding Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS)
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) refers to a condition that affects the nerves, blood vessels, and muscles in the upper chest area, known as the thoracic outlet. This syndrome can be caused by various factors, one of them being auto injuries.
The Relationship Between Auto Injuries and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
When an auto injury occurs, such as whiplash from a car accident, the impact can result in trauma to the neck and shoulder region. This trauma can lead to compression or irritation of the nerves and blood vessels that pass through the thoracic outlet, resulting in Thoracic Outlet Syndrome.
Common Symptoms of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome can cause a wide range of symptoms, including:
- Shoulder pain and stiffness
- Numbness or tingling in the arm or hand
- Weakness in the arm or hand
- Difficulty gripping or holding objects
- Swelling in the arm or hand
