Hi Dear ,
Welcome to HCM,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have chest itching upon exerting shoulder and back muscles. Vasically that is not itching its probably a kind of pinching pain. Well as your have lifted very heavy weight , sometimes this may lead to spasm of trapezius or injury to related ligament due tilting of heavy load on one side . poor posture is also one of the reason for suck kind of pain . the probable reasons for chest pain are compressed fracture or nerve impingement due to heavy weight . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination and rule out causes related to heart . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant , calcium supplement , anti inflammatory or recommend you for stretching and physical therapy . If your are experiencing dizziness n weakness or shortness of breath then there is a possibility of heart disease , In that case refer to cardiologist .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
