Worsening Back Pain, Around Left Shoulder Blade With Popping Noise, Hurts. Solution ?

Hi, I recently started working as a housekeeper, but a couple days ago i started getting this back pain, he seems to have gotten worse, its right around my left shoulder blade, sometimes when i move it makes a popping noise and when it does it feels like its on fire right after that. It also hurts even just if running water touches it.

Hello,
You have back pain which worsens after any movement and even touch of water , means you must be having muscle sprain or might be some injury on back by lifting any heavy wt.so muscle spasm may be there on your back around your shoulder blade.
Therefore it is my advice to take rest and apply analgesic & muscle relaxant cream gently on affected area and also take some analgesic & muscle relaxant tab such as diclofenac sodium + Paracetamol+ Chlorzoxazone twice a day.
If not relieved by above than you must go for X-Ray(Chest PA View) or MRI and consult a your Orthopedic Surgeon or Re habitation centre for Physiotherapy advice. Hope You will resolve your Problem ,All the best and Good Luck.
