In May I had an appointment at Peninsula Hand Therapy in Mornington. During this consultation, after explaining my issue, she performed a few test including how I write with my left hand and right hand, hand stretches, holding objects, and general hand movement exercise to see when the pins and needles pain occurred compared to my opposite hand. Then said she couldn’t be of any help in fixing this nerve issue because its coming from the Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and she felt that hand therapy wouldn’t relieve the pressure and alleviate the pain. I was then referred to a Vascular Surgeon to discuss possible surgery to correct this issue.
