CHQ: SUBJECT: •Radical neck dissection
  MESSAGE: Hi, I had this surgery 10 years ago as a result of thyroid cancer and have had a lot of problems with my rights side neck and shoulder exactly as you described in your article.  Can you recommend any treatment?  When I mentioned it to my surgeon post surgery he did not think it had anything to do with the operation.  I had the SCM muscle removed as well as the parathyroids, total thyroid removal, artery, &12 lymph nodes.
Summary: Can you recommend any treatment for neck and shoulder problems following radical neck dissection for thyroid cancer?
