What Could Be The Reason For Having Pain Behind Left Shoulder Blade With Fatigue?

I recently saw my Dr. For congestion and cough, bad cold. He said I had congestion in upper part of lungs. Got a cortisone shot, RX for antibiotic and cough medicine. Felt well enough to return to work today and started having pain behind left shoulder blade with fatigue. Why the pain?

actually a chest congestion and coughing may cause that pain ...either due to chest infection or muscle strain caused by cough..
hot packs can help..hot drinks..
get a sputum culture if sputum is of color or you got fever.
