Back Pain Around Shoulder Blade Area. Posted: 04-18-05 00:09am
This is kind of complicated. I'd say that
about a year ago, through rough horseplay
with siblings, I was shoved onto the bed.
I remember feeling something odd like I
had landed wrong somehow. I didn't
experience anything then.
That night, I was completely unable to lay
on my back because every time I exhaled,
it felt like something was piercing my
heart. I was experiencing this pain kinda
in the shoulder blade area on my left
side. In order to stop it, I had to sleep
on my side or lay on my right side.
Some nights, the pain was bearable but
other nights, it was unbearable. This
happened for many months. Then, one night
out of the blue, the pain was now on the
right side rather than on the left side.
It was still on the same 'level'. And I
suffered with that since.
Sometimes, I also feel the pain in my
chest on the same level as well if I lean
back too far or to the right or left, etc.
It seems like its at its worse when i've
been laying on my back in bed.
Should I be concerned? I figured it would
go away on its own like I pulled or tore
the muscle but i'm wondering if it may be
bone-related.
