Thanks for the responses! I worked with a chiropractor for the last three months and it has helped somewhat. He gave specific exercises for me to try, which have improved my posture and strengthened my back/arm/shoulder muscles. I notice the pain/itch more when I spend too much time with my head forward (phone, computer). FYI, prior to the chiropractor, I tried physical therapy and acupuncture, neither of which helped. Topical lotions have not helped either. I originally thought it was due to nerve impingement, but I had an MRI and CT, and there was none. For me, it's all about posture and exercise. I also got a standing desk, since it also flares up if I sit too long.

I’ve had this for years. This is weird but Bath and Body Works Twisted peppermint lotion really helps take the edge off the itch. Only thing that has helped
