Post Workout Arm Pain. Possible Thoracic Outlet Syndrome?
Posted on 12/30/21 at 3:13 pm

After training very hard the next day when your arms would be sore it’s more of a dead feeling as if I pitched 100 innings.
The pain and dead feeling goes from my shoulders to my forearms and intensifies from day 2-4 even with rest. If I try to push through it and train 2-3 consecutive days the pain becomes unbearable.
I’ve had nerve conduction tests and they came back normal.
Has anyone experienced anything similar?

It could be TOC.
When you say a nerve conduction test, does this mean it ruled out a pinched nerve at C5C6 or C6C7?

Intermittent symptoms are very unlikely to result in positive nerve conduction tests, and in my experience essentially never positive in thoracic outlet patients.
I would recommend at least having a vascular clinic that treats TOS do an ultrasound evaluation of your thoracic outlet.
It's a dynamic study and can potentially diagnose any structural sources of compression. In addition, can evaluate for vascular thoracic outlet syndrome which is far more serious.
If you live in Baton Rouge I highly recommend Vascular Clinic.

I have had TOS for nearly 9 years. I've had several surgeries throughout the years for it. Mine is nerve and with my symptoms they were a constant deep ache. The pain never went away. I never really had any numbness or tingling. My arm would get very tired and feel heavy when I was barely using it. I had my first rib removed earlier this year as well as a pec minor release. They most definitely helped with everything. A lot of times with the nerve conduction test results come back normal. It takes a lot of different tests to diagnose it usually. Sorry for the long response!
