I'm confused by both this post and your posting history. I can't tell if you're AMAB who had shoulder narrowing surgery a year ago and complications, AFAB who had shoulder widening , or just complications from an accidental break in your clavicle.

Knowing what you're trying to achieve would be helpful, but you're probably going to have to depend on your surgical team (or a second opinion from another surgeon) to figure out where to go from here.

I am intersex and had shoulder narrowing surgery for medical reasons. My goal is to get my shoulders fixed. (:

"Fixing" the shoulders and intentionally narrowing the shoulders are two different things and may be mutually exclusive at this point.

Your options are probably limited and the desired outcomes may not be possible. A second opinion is definitely called for here. Good luck.

I feel like we might have some misunderstanding here, but thank you! I already had said surgery and am now dealing with one of the possible complications. My left shoulder healed great, but my right one didn't do as well.

Shoulder shortening?

Oh, the vanity...
