Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My entire left arm is paining. I feel like my nerves pop when I finish playing the flute. I went to a dance practice, and my hand was purple, and after I massaged it, it went back to its normal color. What is causing this? What can I do to fix it?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
This can happen due to a thoracic outlet syndromeor a cervical rib, which can cause compression of nerves and blood vessels and lead to pain and discoloration of the arm and hand.
So, I suggest you try doing the following.
You can send me your x-rays, and then I can give you a more accurate advice.
