Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In Shoulder Blade

I am having severe pain in my left shoulder blade. It comes and goes but it feels like a needle is going in there. I had a stent put in one of my arteries 7 years ago. Would this have anything to do with this pain? My email is YYYY@YYYY . Thank you

Hi
The stenting has nothing to do with shoulder suffering.Do you have restriction Of shoulder movement along with pain more at night,then it could be frozen shoulder.
You may take ibuprofen along with exercises for shoulder will help.
Take care
