What Causes Persistent Pain In The Lower Shoulder Blade And Back?
I have been having a pain in my lower shoulder blade on my back. When I would go to bend over it would pull and send a sharp down my side. Now the pain is on my back bone inbetween my shoulder blades. It is a constant pressure pain. I do not have a cough, but when I am walking I am noticing that I have shortness of breath. I do not have shortness of breath or trouble breathing when I am sitting, but I do when I get up to walk. No fever either
