Conditions OverviewThoracic Outlet Syndrome Care in Montgomery
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) can cause pain, numbness, and tingling in the shoulders, neck, and arms. At our Montgomery clinic, Dr. McNally offers various approaches to addressing TOS-related concerns. With three decades of clinical experience, she works with patients to understand their specific situations and discuss potential care options.
Our TOS care process typically includes:
- Detailed symptom discussion
- Health history review
- Postural and ergonomic assessment
- Range of motion tests
- Treatment option explanations
Note: Symptoms can vary among individuals. We focus on creating appropriate care plans based on each patient's specific presentation.
Understanding Different Types of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Neurogenic TOS
The most common form, neurogenic TOS occurs when the nerves leading from the neck to the arm (the brachial plexus) are compressed. Our evaluation focuses on identifying postural or anatomical factors contributing to this compression.
Venous TOS
This type involves the compression of a major vein in the area, leading to swelling, discoloration, and a feeling of heaviness in the arm. Our diagnostic process helps differentiate this from other causes of arm swelling.
Arterial TOS
The rarest form, arterial TOS involves the compression of a major artery. This is a serious condition that requires prompt medical attention. While we do not treat arterial TOS directly, our thorough evaluation helps rule out or identify signs that warrant an immediate referral.
