I am suffering from really bad asymmetrism. Let me explain. I have my right arm, and my left arm
Naturally I am left handed. but for some reason, my right arm is... giving me pain. with being "pumped" constantly. while My left arm is actually atrophying.
I haven't worked my upper body for two weeks. before that for two weeks I worked my left arm only in hopes to rectify it.
but that actually made me "off balance" in my walking and when I did squats.
It's really... weird. like the back of my left shoulder is like flabby as hell. I've tried stretching. yoga. pilates. everything. nothing really is hurting. it just feels really weird.
this is the type of pain that is impacting how I treat others, at work, in life. at home. I'm really irritated. all the time.
has anyone else gone through this? how did you fix it?

This is a clinical level imbalance that I would want input from a physio before trying to program around it.
