What Causes Pain In The Shoulder Blade And Difficulty In Breathing?
The pain I ha e experienced of late, comes on very sudden (upper right shoulder blade area) very sharp, and makes a decent breath impossible throughout its duration, which is not more than 5-10 seconds. While it is in the shoulder blade area, the pain is also in the upper part of my chest(front)

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Your oroblems can be-
-pain or sprain /muscle pain /trauma/osteoporosis... leading to pain in scapular movements which aid physicall mechanism of respiration
-breathlessness due to allergic or bacterial bronchitis/asthma/pneumonitis /heart problem or severe anemia. All of these would cause more stress to thorasic cage & scapula... thus leading to pain.
You need a physician 's consultation for exact diagnosis &treatment.
Thanks.
