What Causes Numbness In Fingers Along With Shoulder Blade Pain?

I have a pain in my left shoulder at the back near the shoulder blade. There is also numbness in my left thumb and the nearest finger to it. There seems to be some sort of nerve pain between the shoulder and the thumb. I can t recall doing anything recently that would have caused it. It has been going on for about three days now.
