General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello and thanks you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can with my answer.

This is possible thoracic outlet syndrome and you should do cervical spine scan to see is there nerve compression in that area. It can be treated by exercising in most cases and rarely necessitates surgery but scan should be done to establish diagnosis.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
