Deformed scapula...?

I have a deformed scapula, what can be done for it? It has just recently started hurting, burning, and tingling. Is there anything that can be done for it? I know I need to see a doctor, just wondering what to expect when I go in. Thanks for the advice

Answer:
What do you mean deformed? You probably have weak scapular muscles and may even have spasms in any one or more of your scapular muscles.

Addition:
Thats called a winging scapula and that means that you have weak serratus anterior muscle. I recommend that you go to see a physical therapist to help you strengthen you scapular muscles.
Are you sure it is not a fatty tumor that is beginning to develop? I have one on my scapula and that seems to be a place where they are prone to pop out. I need to make an appointment to have mine surgically removed. They are not dangerous but can become large and protruding. Have a doctor check it out.
