Here's the link to towelhorse's posts-

I haven't had scapular winging myself, so I can really only point you to other posts and threads. I don't have any first hand knowledge of it and my version of TOS is fairly mild now.

Are you able to do gentle stretching { Sharon Butler's RSI book covers TOS- she has a website http://www.selfcare4rsi.com/index.html & book is in libraries},
diaphragmatic breathing & relaxation, whole body posture work {Alexander or Feldenkrais types}?

So ice works best for you?
I did ice my forearms a lot at the beginning, my symptoms were mainly there at that time. Most of us need heat for our neck, upper back and shoulders- cold makes my muscles tighten up now..

oh here's our Drs & PT useful sticky thread -
