What Causes Pain In The Chest And Left Shoulder Blade?

I have almost continually pain across my chest above my breast, it started a few weeks ago in my left shoulder blade and I though I had pulled a muscle but it hasn t gone away. 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

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
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.
