Default TOS symptoms when I shrug my shoulder

Hi all, many of you are much more experienced than I am in body mechanics & TOS. I had a question to ask.

I am right handed, and my TOS symptoms are really hard to bear on the right side - upper trap seizes up, burning pain all the way down to the shoulder blade. Left hand burns as well, and since I fell on the left side from a bike.

But I have a symptom that I figured out when trying to do some exercises. When I shrug my right shoulder, raise it and drop it, immediately i get the "classical" TOS symptoms of my pinkie and 4th finger tingling/buzzing/hurting on the right hand.

Can this indicate where the compression is?

And what exercises I can do to improve it? Interestingly on using kinesio tape to hold my shoulders back, the burning in both hands decreased but the upper trap issue on the right side remained.
