Suggest Treatment For Pain In Shoulder Blades
Hi, I am a 28 year old male. 5 7 205lbs. Around 3-4 weeks ago i started getting pain in my left shoulder blade. Recently i feel it on the right side too but not as bad. I used to use smokeless tobacco but quit 4 months ago because of problems with stomach and reflux. I also have pain in my chest right behind/below left collar bone. Dull pain that comes and goes. Any thoughts, thank you.

HI
The described symptoms could well be due to muscle spasm,if there is restriction of shoulder movement.Do you have that?
My suggestion would be to have hot water fomentation along with Ibuprofen and prescription only muscle relaxant drug like thiocolchicoside.Get them prescribed by your local doctor.
take care
