Hi, I recently got my chest x ray done as a part of complete body check up and I found out that I have bilateral cervical ribs.!
I always use to face problem with stiff neck and shoulders but it was not very painful and it was more like a routine thing for me.!!!
But I recently started physiotherapy from last 20 days after knowing that I have bilateral cervical ribs.!!
But after the physiotherapy I feel my symptoms have aggravated.!
My hands gets numb, while sleeping or while using a mobile phone in supine position,
I get pinching pain on my right side neck shoulder region while making rotis or doing any work in the kitchen.
Any time if my hands are above my hand for more than 15-20 secs I feel that they start getting numb
At the physiotherapy center the threat that they give me is as follow..
10 mins of hot pack initially
After that I do exercises to strengthen my pectorals with weights (like 1-1.5 kgs) in supine position for both hands
And then I do wall pushups and chin tucks.

Ideally the problem should not aggrevate post physiotherapy treatment, wat I think is ur muscles are getting more stressed than relaxed with the treatment n hence the pain, u can ask them to get more mechanical modalities included in the treatment plan to bring about the relaxation
