Now a low the one Oddball is C7 and I learned this not that long ago from some really great cervical spine surgeons um is that if you have a deep posterior pain under your scapula yes that can be C7
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
is is pretty consistent at the lower level the C7 nerve root level if they have compression down there then that that goes deep under the scapula and gives them that deep scapular plane and and the problem there and what's been so great for me to learn this later in my career is I often would see patients will develop scapular thoracic bursitis and you can clearly get that from lifting weights especially if you've been out of the weight room for a long time you go back into it you can get a lot of upper trapezius periscapular rhomboid type pain from overuse and those so those overlap
