Hello
Are u having any pain either at rest or while doing any activities?
Can u do overhead shoulder movements? Do u have any pain while doing the movement?
From how many days u r having this problem?
So mainly scapular winging is due to weakness of the seratus anterior muscle.
How do u diagnose the condition?
You have to strengthen the seratus anterior muscle and along with that the muscles surrounding the scapula.
Start with stretching those muscles and next start doing the strengthening exercises.
You can also do push ups that will prevent the winging of scapula.
Next Steps
Scapular winging may be of many reasons not only muscles even nerves are also involved in some cases so it's better to assess the exact cause and treat the problem.
Consult through practo for proper assessment, guidance and for treatment protocol.
Health Tips
Avoid bending forwards.

It's difficult to develop winging in just 2 weeks unless there is significant nerve damage... So I guess the winging you noticed has been there for a while now.
If there are no symptoms what made you notice the winging?
Next Steps
asymptomatic winging doesn't require treatment unless you plan to take up intense physical activity like a sport or weight training program..
if it still bothers you a few exercises for your shoulder blade and shoulder joint will do the needful!
consult for further information.

You need to perform a graded progressive exercise protocol for your condition. You need to perform strengthening exercises for your scapular musculature. And stretching for chest region.

Hi
May I ask that how did you find out whether it is winging of scapula ? Are you a good sports player or have you tried any new sport which also might be a cause for winging or weakness.
Try some shoulder stretches and DON'T do shoulder rotations. Try wall push ups which might strengthen your scapula and try few back rolling exercises on a foam roller if you have.
Health Tips
Please don't try these above exercises if you have a doubt. Do take an online consultation with any of US for a good clarity.
Take care ....... Stay safe
