Hey all,
Going through the exact same problem
Although I've constant swelling of the hands and veins too, I've recently found a new PT who's stated the same 'your upper trap (right) has wasted and you must shrug!'. I kinda understand what he's say, but for for the past 3 years I've been give 'shoulders down and back', with no progress - so maybe he's right?
I have a desk job, so all my pain comes during work hours.
I guess I'm querying whether anyone's been through a similar story with the PT?
