Brachial Plexus Runner

Mark Raabe

Hi all,

Have an athlete with disability, right brachial plexus lesion 2=BA to =
MBA.

Nerve transplantation for shoulder stability, has worked but not 100%.

Running short to long distance on the track.

Binding arm across chest with hand close to opposite shoulder at =
present.

Would like to try and position arm for more normal swing during running =
but
maintaining shoulder subluxation support.

About to try Wilmer carrying orthosis with modifications.

Wondering if anyone has had experience with this type of scenario?

Will post results.
