What Causes Back Pain And Numbness Around Shoulder Area?

For over a week I ve had back pain, right shoulder blade up to back of the neck and around to the collar bone. Although I have full range of motion, the shoulder blade area is almost numb, a weird sensation. Did I just sleep wrong and need to wait it out or should I get x-rays and/or go to a chiropractor?

I think your should looks Ok but you need to check your spine with Xrays in different projections and evaluation form the neurologist specialist
