Hi guys,

I was just wondering if somebody could explain the connection that my TOS has with the pain between my shoulder blades and my scapular winging. Why is it that a problem originating up high in my neck/thoracic outlet would have downstream effects this severe? The pain in my upper back is by far my biggest complaint.

Also, is there anybody out there who has gotten surgery for TOS and found that there winging stopped? I've had physios tell me that my scapular winging came first and thats why I developed TOS, but that can't be right as all attempts to strengthen my back and shoulder blades do nothing to help the problem.

Thanks
