What Causes Constant Pain Between My Shoulder Blades?

I have constant pain between my shoulder blades. Had some sort of flu recently which started in my nose and ended up in my chest. Finished a 5 day course of Klacid 3 days ago but still can t produce a proper cough and have pain in my upper back between my shoulder blades.

Hi,

It may be due to muscular pain related to sprained back muscle.

You can take analgesics like Ibuprofen or Diclofenac for pain relief. Also take adequate bed rest and apply ice packs for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist, you can consult a physician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
