Suggest Remedy For Pain In Left Shoulder Blade,left Side Of Chest And Under Lower Ribs

I have pain down my left shoulder blade and on the left side of my chest. Also constant pain under my lower ribs on the right side. I have had heart conditions ruled out, x ray showed my lungs clear and hyda scan showed by gall bladder working fine. I am frustrated and hate to continue to return to the doc for the same issues.

hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

As you have Shoulder blade pain it could be related to cervical spine issue or inflammation of the trapezious muscle.

Also for thoracic pain and below the ribs pain I feel this could be related to the muscle weakness and can be corrected as well.

For both of your issues I will advice you to undergo Physical therapy as it will help you to reduce the pain and get optimum strength in the muscles.

in my clinical practice most cases recover well to physical therapy and get the best outcome score. I wish the same from you.

For any in particular understanding about the exercises I can surely help you.

regards
