What Is The Painful Lump Between My Shoulder Blades?
I have a lump between my shoulder (between shoulder bones) and neck and I got bearable pain when I get cold. I’m having this for last six months. I have consulted a physician sis months ago and did the blood tests and x-ray and results were ok. Please explain me what is this?

Hi.
It could be a Lipoma or a Dermoid cyst or a Hemangioma. It is impossible to say without examining it. I suggest you see a Surgeon who can examine you and advice accordingly. You might require an Ultrasound or Color Doppler to qualify the lesion. If these investigations are unable to then an MRI would be the final word on what it is.
Treatment can be decided only once the diagnosis os established. You can tell us the reports if you need help with treatment advice.
Take care.
