Apparent shoulder blade injury (URGENT)
Hello,
I think I might've injured my right scapula doing barbell rows at the gym. Initially, I thought it was a anterior deltoid injury because the pain was too sharp, but then it became clear I'd hurt my right scapula. There's also some pain when I press a bone on my chest close to the colllarbone. I don't have that much pain anymore but I'm unable to lift weights without some pain. I might go see a doctor soon but since I can't go to the private sector, if I have a more serious injury, I'm screwed.

I don't understand, "can't go to the private sector." But nobody can diagnose you without seeing you and possibly giving you diagnostic tests, so if you don't want a diagnosis your only choice is to wait it out, rest, ice and see if it goes away. But if it's a diagnosis you want, yeah, you have to see the docs and get some pictures.
