Pain below shoulder blade right side
Hi,
I have a pain on right side neck and right side below shoulder blade. I have taken an x Ray and consulted with a doctor who diagnosed it to be a neck spasm due to poor posture and advised physiotherapy. I have completed it, neck pain has significantly reduced.
But pain below shoulder blade is still there and appears to be at a point. And if someone presses it, they can feel a node or a bump kind of a thing right there.
Is it just the referred pain from neck or it is a separate issue ?

Try taking physio for atleast 5 more days.. trigger point release can be done to relieve the point pains that u have.. trapezius muscle has got inflamed due to which u still feel the pain at a point.

Take ice pack and do scapular strengthening exercises for a permanent relief. avoid sitting in one posture for more than 45 mins to 1 hour at a stretch.
