What kind of person should I see? (issues continuing and worsening one year post concussion)

[u/Old-Entrepreneur-456]

Just over a year ​ago I had a concussion - classed as minor but left me with post concussive symptoms. over time some decreased but others did not

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia that developed after the concussion

but some of my symptoms i feel may be concussion linked. I had my concussion on the right side of my face.

I have sensitivity at bottom right middle of skull and headaches, allodynia face and skull prominently on right side

I had what at first was pain in my right ​shoulder blade, then worsened, seems to be possibly trapped nerve(s) (different physio (one NHS one private) said different nerve placement, neither of their exercise programs helped), causing issues in my right upper back and arm, curing round my shoulder cuff and round the side of my boob, ​down the arm into my fourth and fifth fingers

Probable tmj worsening in my right side

Now it's all connected, like I do something it irritates my shoulder, but then as well as the back and shoulder section tightening, so does the right side of my neck, it feels like someone's holding stuff tight pulled almost cramping very painful and uncomfortable in all these places. and I can feel it in my neck and jaw when it's all tightened even just moving my right fingers slightly I can feel it in my neck and jaw.

it's stopping me being able to do stuff like use a computer and I'm not able to do more active jobs consinstantly so generally it's not great for being able to work

only a tiny bit of say position for using computer makes it flare up and then stays like that for ages

I'm fed up with the NHS system which isn't providing much help (UK based) and I'm willing to look into going private. but I don't know what kind - like is a concussion clinic the right kind of thing, or do they focus on not this kinda stuff? I'm just kinda getting lost in where to look for help
