Back pain

I have a muscle that goes from the back of my head to the bottom of my right shoulder blade that is hurting. I have had this pain for almost 2 weeks now and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better. It makes it hard to sleep, work and what hurts the most is driving. Every time I turn my head from left to right or up or down it sends a sharp pain all through my shoulder. I would like to know what I can do to help with the pain until it gets better. I’m only 23 so I don’t understand why I’m in so much pain for this long.

I had neck pain and shorter blade pain as well. I found going to a chiropractor helped quite a bit, through chiropractic adjustment, and adjustments to posture. I also found out later on that since my car accident I had a cervical disk pressing on my spine. Since the surgery the neck pain and shoulder blade pain has been considerably better. Unless you have any recent injuries to the area it might be a good idea to consult author Pete especially store a chiropractor to see if there are any structural causes for your muscular pain.
