Pain in the Right Posterior Thoracic Region Case History A maintenance man came to Caring Medical a few months ago complaining of pain in his right posterior thoracic region, aggravated with the use of his right arm. The pain began in earnest eight months prior, the patient thinking it stemmed from the many repetitive motions he made at work, such as hammering, sawing and painting. He rated the pain as an 8 on a scale of 10. A previous MRI showed a bulging disc and he was referred to a neurologist by his primary care physician, but he decided to come here first. The patient told us the pain seemed to begin in the area below his right shoulder blade, sending shooting pain to his right hip and neck, and causing his arm to feel numb. He found it difficult to grip tools, and actually could not work because of this. We treated him with normal Prolotherapy solution, adding 1 cc procaine to the syringes. We concentrated the injections to the right side of his mid thoracic area. He was told to try to use his left hand for some of his repetitive jobs and to return to the clinic in one month. Upon his return, the patient told us that his pain level was down to a three and he thought he was 70% improved. The numbness was completely gone in his right arm. We treated him for the second time using the same solution and told him to return to Caring Medical if needed. We called this patient for follow up and he told us he was doing well, He had no need for further treatment. |
