Sudden pain in shoulder blade and back
I was doing some stretches and put my body in the 'arch' or 'crab' position and my shoulder twinged. I am in excruciating pain and the pain has spread from my shoulder blade into my upper back. It hurts in every position when I lie down and I'm worried about what I have done to myself. My initial thoughts were that I have trapped a nerve and strained a muscle, but the pain is not subsiding after taking Paracetamol and Ibuprofen - I would like a second opinion please as I am bed ridden andin pain
