in back side around shoulder blade area. the pain is there all the time . on movement is more . when I do try to put my next straight is pain even more
Brief Answer:
As explained below.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It looks like a muscle strain. I suggest you give it adequate rest and you can take Tab. Nucoxia MR twice daily for 3 days after food. Hot fomentation also helps relieve pain. Usually, muscle strain takes 1 to 3 months to heal. So it is not advised to do any vigorous exercise or lifting weights etc.
In case it persists an X-Ray or CT scan will have to be done.
I hope this answered your query.

Brief Answer:
As explained below.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It can be due to gas, but it will be centrally located. What you are having looks like a muscle strain or spasm and can be due to over-activity. Drink lots of water and you can add a multivitamin such as Tab. Becosules once daily for a month as dehydration and vitamin deficiency can also cause such pain.
