@mpar6771 Welcome to Connect. It must be frustrating to keep enduring pain. I have had a situation of nerve compression from thoracic outlet syndrome in addition to being a cervical spine surgery patient. I have done a lot of physical therapy and my PT has done a therapy called myofascial release that has helped me a lot by loosening up tight tissue. Surgery creates scar tissue and that can lead to pain when it gets tight. It does not show up on imaging. We have a discussion on Connect about MFR if you search for it where you can learn more. I do this a lot to maintain body alignment by releasing restrictive tissue and I work on the surgical scar tissue and it relieves the pain. I have also done this on my ankle with surgical scars from a fracture fix. That lets the joint function better instead of binding up from tightness. It also reduces wear and tear if the body moves properly.

Do you think this would be something to try?
