Thoracic outlet syndrome is experienced as numbness, tingling, soreness or decreased blood flow in the shoulders, arms or hands.
The thoracic outlet is a bottleneck where an important bundle of nerves and blood vessels pass between the head and arm. The space is tight and trauma to the neck can cause swelling of the muscles in the area, which can then constrict the nerves and result in symptoms.
Because the neck is a very complex area, it can be tricky to pinpoint the precise origin of your pain, and other disorders can imitate the symptoms of thoracic outlet syndrome.
