I was involved in a high speed accident. I have been told I have a brachial plexus injury. The C5-6 is compressed. From my left neck across shoulder into the armpit area I m swollen. Because I m not using the arm I have now been diagnosed with two blood clots in left arm and no feeling below the elbow. And to top it off I have been told I have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome.. Other then that I have been told nothing. What is going on and what should I expect, I drive commercial for a living. Please what is going on?
Howell come to ChatDoctorI really appreciate your concern, if this is the injury to nerve fiber then it may not be repairable or can not be cured, but physiotherapy can be tried for this, such injury can cause the pain syn Chat Doctor.
