What Causes Pain In The Chest And Left Shoulder Blade?

I had a new great grandson had to keep him for a couple of days while his mom was in the hospital when he was only a week or two old, so I thought that the muscle may have gotten strained and caused the problem. should I be concerned
Hello, Thank you for using healthcaremagic. I read your question and understood your concern. I think you should rule out an heart attack by doing a EEC and blood test evaluation. Once the heart is Ok then do not worry for the muscle problem is it will go way with antiinflmatory drugs and cream. I wish you quick recovery. Dr. Selmani
