Suggest Treatment For Muscle Spasms On Back And Shoulder

Hello sir. This goes back when i was a kid about 8 to 10 years old cannot remember accurately.I used to come home from school having a very heavy bag on my back and immediately instead of resting or taking a nap i used to play games on my computer without resting my back and used to see my monitor screen closely in such a way that my shoulder were forward and not in a relaxed position. For example if (8) in the picture below is the computer then my pose would be towards it as shown below. / 8 (/) is me and I used to be alot more bended than. Well this went on and one day as I was in this position my back shoulder started to hurt like the muscle was contracted and i suddenly lied back and the pain went.From that day onward.........I cannot sit straight infront of anything whther it is tv,my computer or even on my study desk.Whenever I sit my shoulder muscles start hurting like someone is just pulling them hard as they like...............Please sir you have to help me or my whole life is doomed

Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
 
Don't worry please. It is muscular spasm and the pain is due to stiffness in the muscles. You need to keep a safe distance when sitting in front of tv or pc. When you forcefully see something close to your eye for a long time it causes a stress on the back of neck and shoulders.

What is the need of hour, You have to make an appointment with an Ophthalmologist for complete evaluation of your eyes. Kids ( as you were when the problem started) usually having a week eyesight have the same issues as you are suffering for long time.


Remember, You also need an appointment with a physical therapist for the pain and stiffness. It will be of great benefit to you. For the time being, take Ibuprofen for pain.

Hope I answered all of your health concerns . If you have further questions in future, feel free to contact me anytime. In the start of your question write my name, and I will get back to you in no time. If satisfied, please click you found it helpful.

Have a wonderful time ahead.
