Posture imbalance
I joined gym few months ago,and recently I found that there is some imbalance in my posture,my right side shoulder and chest are a bit down and tilted I could always feel a sensation that something is wrong in my right side while walking n exercising ,to be precise my right side collarbone is visible out and when I try to align my hand by lifting,it gets into exact shape as the left, because of this issue,I have effect on the muscle growth,the left side of the chest looks bigger than right,and I often get pain in the gym in right side part of my back especially the places around scapula, infraspinatus m,which even makes me look awkward in tshirts, my left side of the body is completely toned well,but am worried of my right side! Please suggest me a solution, and do I need to wear a posture corrector? Please advise. Thank you
