From last 5 days it was paining continously, it increases pain when I wake up in morning or stand up after sitting, taking support to back.
There is no restricted movement or pointed pain but it feels heavy always and pains sometime. When moderate pain raises in back side of shoulder, shoulder blade, and just below armpit near shoulder blade, I feel heaviness in triceps, left trepezious and in palm cousion just opposite side to thumb.

I have got tested ECG, and different blood tests, ECG was good, vitamin D was deficiency found.
