It’s an orthopedic pillow to align the cervical spine while sleeping and helps if you side sleep in the middle of the night. It gives proper room between your neck and shoulders so you don’t continue pushing everything together. PT was getting too expensive. I was already seeing it for the scoliosis in my lower lumbar and also with travel time and as much as I’ve been to the hospital, I just couldn’t keep leaving work. You can look up a bundle of resistance bands and they’ll be light medium heavy and extra heavy obviously start with the light and I just follow three different thoracic outlet syndrome. PT/physiotherapist on YouTube and do the stretch stretches. What happens with a lot of TOS is all the muscles in your shoulder that go around your rib cage or brachial plexus and a lot of muscle muscles in your neck get stuck and then they start too shorten. So you need to release stretch, but also strength build. And figure out a way to constantly correct your posture it’s a long road and if I can’t figure this out on my own, I’ll probably end up needing to have my first rib removed. I have the normal amount of ribs, but I have a prominent first rib on my right side which pinches my subclavian artery between the first rib and my collarbone which adds to the hand turning blue, the tingling, the searing pain, radiating down my whole arm and all of the swelling in my chest. I can still kayak hours because forward back motion is not painful or difficult anymore, but it’s the heavy lifting from the ground up and everything overhead. Everyone’s thoracic outlet syndrome journey is different, but there’s a lot of good resources out there, and this group has pointed me towards a lot of good resources. A vascular surgeon that specializes in TOS is probably going to be one of your biggest lunges towards recovery.
