left shoulder discomfort..."winged scapula?"

[hazard404]

anyways, ive been having troubles with my left shoulder for a couple of years now. i had MRI scans & xrays done and have been examined by a physiotherapist. the therapists main concern was that id ripped a tendon in my bicep, MRI scans revealed all was fine. but that didnt explain the weird way my shoulder was growing, or how it looks when i lift my arm up etc.
i did some research today, and i came across something called a 'winged scapula'.
i did the basic exercies of places both palms against a wall and pushing against it, i saw that my left scapula protuded outwards more than my right one.
this is only slightly noticeable when both my shoulders are relaxed, although you can see a definate difference in size.
also, apparently a winged scapula can affect a number of exercies, one of them being a bench press, i cant find the site again and i cant remember any of the others, :|
i also have trouble when doing bicep curls etc.

just to clarify, whenever i do a bench press, when i bring the bar back down towards my chest, i notice that my left pec isnt stretching, if at all, as much as my right one, thus giving me the reason to believe as this is why my left pec is smaller, and more to the left, than my right one.
also, i feel the pressure in my left shoulder, yet i feel the pressure in my chest on my right side.

also, with bicep curls, i noticed when i lift a weight that i find heavy but "liftable", my left bicep doesnt contract as much (that is to say, doesnt go hard as much), as my right one. the front part of my left shoulder tenses and becomes hard, as does my tricep, which doesnt happen with my right bicep (only the bicep and the side area of my shoulder tenses)

my left trap is also ALOT more buit than my right one, considering as far as i can remember, ive never done an exercise, (apart from once or twice) to build my traps.
my left shoulder is also, a lot more, i would say, "disfigured", than my right one, which looks perfectly normal.

Sounds like more than simple biceps tendonosis. A winged scapula is more of a result than a cause. It is usually caused by an injury to the long thoracic nerve, or the spinal accessory nerve. Your problem sounds more complicated than an isolated nerve injury, although winging of yur scapula may be a component. Possibly it is brachial neuritis.  I suggest consultation with a neurologist

im torn between it being bicep tendinosis, or a winged scapula, and i am not sure which it can be. im desperately seeking help on this, as no doctor or physiotherapist has ever been able to diagnose the problem. i was told to stop gym for about 6 months; i stopped it for a year instead and saw no beneficial results.

please can someone shed some light on this, as it does sometimes cause me mild discomfort, which i dont really notice because ive gotten used to it.

thanks.
