Suggest Treatment For Pain In Shoulders, Upper Back And Neck?
Hi Sir. I faced an accident in 2007. I fell from roof of a shade as it broke when I stand on that. My both leg were fractured. Now I can walk normally. But after one year of that accident, I face a new problem. I m having pain in my shoulders and upper back, and bank neck. Some time I can see a swelling on my side neck. Daily morning when I wake up I feel the pain. And some time the pain severes. Plz help me doc. I didn t consult any doctor on this issue.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain in shoulders, upper back and neck . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like overuse of muscles , muscle strain, or injury to the muscles, ligaments, poor posture and discs that support your spine. Sometimes condition like cervical spondolysis and trigger points of trepezius muscles can also cause pain and swelling . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor will as you for certain movements , examine physicalli and order x-ray , CT scan and MRI . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant , along with vitamin supplements and recommend physical therapy . For now apply warm compresses to upper back and neck and use cervical pillow.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
