#ChronicPain #CostoclavicularSyndrome #WomenIssues | A post that is definitely for our ladies

Chronic Body Pain Newsletter | Subject: Everything you need to know about bra strap syndrome | 5 May 2018

A great post based on a topic that women from all realms of #chronicillness have problems with. I know I have varying issues, but bra strap syndrome is the least concerning one of them.  Wearing bras is becoming difficult with alternatives often being too expensive, but the cost on the body from wearing ill-fitting bras could end up being more costly.

I’ve been getting #parathesia in left arm for around 10 years, nowadays I have it permanently at some level every day.  On the days it is bad I can’t even lift it let alone try to pick anything up, or get dressed, washed… all of these little ‘daily’ things  that everyone ‘takes for granted’ are affected.


Quoted from Physiopedia – Costoclavicular Syndrome:

The costoclavicular syndrome was first described in soldiers with loaded knapsacks, who developed pain, numbness, and fatigueability of the arms as they stood at attention.[4] The mechanisms of compression involved downward movement of the clavicle against the first rib with a resultant tendency to shearing of the neurovascular bundle.[5]

Every morning and evening I was posting several links to a variety of online newspapers and thought that maybe I could post twice a day from here, our website/blog, Morning and Evening Post instead.

This is to ensure that all the news and stories go out to everyone that follows us across the social media platforms that we have profiles/accounts.

Here’s a few links to my favourite online newspapers for finding a variety of health related news from other Chronic Illness Bloggers & Warriors, for up to date news about health conditions such as latest research papers or people sharing hints and tips about how they cope day-to-day.

Let us help them by showing our support by sharing the news and stories that they share.

If you publish a health related paper.li or other health news magazine/paper that isn’t listed and you would like it to be, please contact me – Carole Sian at fibroflutters@gmail.com or use the form below and let me know, always happy to help 🙂
