Creatine for muscle recovery?

TLDR: I'm constantly uncomfortable. Looking for advice on muscle recovery to help with discomfort while building muscle to fix scapular winging.

Hello! I stared physical therapy a month ago to work on an issue with my shoulders, (winged scapula, so weak muscles causing a ton of discomfort across upper back & neck). I need to get the muscles strengthened to get back to normal but it's a bit of a "it gets worse before it gets better" situation. I have daily workouts from physical therapy & the muscles get fatigued & tight & all things that cause discomfort on top of the discomfort. The key is consistency & patience, I totally get that, but I'm hoping to find something to help speed up the muscle recovery so I'm at least a little less uncomfortable during the process.

I've been looking into Creatine to see if that might help but I was hoping to get some perspective from actual people who have used it. Any other advice welcome. Thank you all!

Things I'm already doing:

Daily water goals to stay hydrated.

Warming up before workouts & cooling down after.

Monthly appointment with massage therapist.

Increased daily protein.

Stretching.

Plenty of sleep.
