You have to assess it in front of the mirror to confirm it. If you notice that your shoulder blade is sticking out prominently then you can partially confirm it. It is also accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue and pain in neck, shoulders and back. You can also do a postural assessment to check whether you have drooping shoulder or not.

Next Steps

Scapular stabilization exercises. strengthening of serratus anterior, rhomboid and trapezius muscles

Health Tips

avoid doing activities which involves vigorous use of left shoulder.
