I've had it noticeably for 2 years now and undergone physio/rehab to strengthen the lower traps and activate the serratus - of course nothing's work.
I've been given the run around by a hatfull of docs, physios and specialists.
However, none of them had pinpointed the cause. I have rotated hips, which COULD be the cause, but all the docs dismiss this as tripe.
My symptoms are:
- Overactive trap due to tilting/winging scapula
- numbness in ear, cheek, arm and hand - possible trapped ulnar
- Extremely tight neck and soreness
- Impinged shoulder
- Weakness in arm
- Spasms in both arms
I'd be interested to know if rizzo02481 made any progress.
Thanks,
Dan

Of course rotated hips can be a prominent issue in worsening your muscle imbalances. Usual pattern is elevated hip on one side and higher shoulder on that side. Lower shoulder & rib cage on the other, and forward rotated hip. Find a PT to release the right muscles and get your shoulders evened out That in itself may release chronically tight muscles.
PS: your symptoms are the same as mine. Mine started after a horrible bike fall, whiplash injury.
