Suggest Treatment For Continuous Pain Around And Underneath Scapula

I have had continous pain around and underneath my scapula. It has been off and on for over a year but I thought maybe it was just out of place. For the past week the pain is intense and gets worse when I am on my feet all day. I m not sure if a Dr visit is necessary or if there are some exercises I can do at home?
