Default Not sure if ive got TOS, could use some advice

Hello everyone,

I was advised by the moderator at the PN forum to post here and see if any of you can help me out.

About 4 months ago, right after my 23rd birthday I started experiencing sunburn like pain mostly in my upper body.
I mostly feel the burning pain in my shoulders, neck, chest and arms but it also slides down to my stomach and legs sometimes.
Ive also been getting red painful swollen fingertips only on my right hand and hot red burning ears at night.

My neurologist did some tests (emg, ncs, autoimmune etc) which all came back fine.

The reasons I think it might be TOS are I know that the red swollen fingertips, specifically because they're only on one hand, indicate a circulation and not a nerve problem.
I've also had scoliosis which was diagnosed a long time ago but never treated, combined with the fact that I work with my computer and slouch all day means I've got a terrible posture.

Are all these symptoms typical of TOS, how do I even go about diagnosing or ruling out this disease.

Ive been absolutely overwhelmed these past few months and ill really appreciate if someone can take the time to answer my questions.
