I have a recent back injury due to heavy lifting in the gym. I continue my gym for 5-4days but sudden arise in pain in the shoulder and back. I relaxed for 5-7 days my muscles pain gone but pain is still there in back and it can be feel by touching thoracic vertebrae. What should I do for complete relief, whether I should consult orthopedic doctor and took x-ray. I took self medication like anti inflammatory drug and ice treatment for my back.

Hi... The pain whatvu experience currently is from the fascial tightness...nothing to worry as this normally happens after a heavy strain and spasm.... I suggest you to continue icing frequently.. Knead gently over your back...it should not be pressed heavily.. forcefully.. If I have any kind of foam roller..can lie on top of it and slowly roll over it up and down... Do little but if warming up exercises and stretches...lying on all fours hunching your back and hollowing it will receive your problem.. Next time if you experience any kind kind of pain anywhere take a bit easy.. u can always compensate in your next session.... Hope this is helpful for you.. Kindly get back if you need further clarification....
