Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Should I Be Concerned About Pain In My Back That Radiates To My Shoulders?
I started having really bad pain in the middle of my back between my shoulder blades. Then after about 2 hours the pain seemed to move to the left side. It also radiated up my left shoulder and down the left breast area. The pain is like a severe stitch . Should I be concerned about this and see a doctor?
Hi, there! Your concern is correct! Shoulder pain is easier to treat than spinal disorders. You must investigate Your cevical/thoracic vertebrae. It will be treated by physiotherapy, if musculosceletal problem will be found. Muscle disbalanss can cause it too
I hope this helps
