Default Winged Scalpula? Help

I am pretty sure I have a winged scalpula. my mother in law noticed it when she was giving me a massage, and then my acupuncturist noticed it too. Whats interesting is none of my dr's ever mentioned it except Dr. filler who I decided not to see for various reasons.

it makes sense because my pain starts in my scalpula/rhomboids, and it is a sharp pain-then the nerves all around my scalpula,neck and down my arm start to flare. I started taking neurontin 600 mg at night and it is helping but I am having breakthrough pain. I'm thinking of starting to take it during the day too, but dont want to get too tired.

Does anyone understand how winged scalpula is related to TOS? Does the rib just pull on the muscle? What are the best strecthces and exercises that dont flare you up? I lay on the soft roller-but that is the only one that seems to help a bit.I APPRECIATE ANY HELP I CAN GET. THANKS!
