Suggest Treatment For Burning Pain Around Shoulder Blade
For about the past 3 months I have had an ache around my left shoulder blade around my bra strap are. It has now developed into a burning ache and seems to be getting worse. I have been doing a lot of gardening. I have been taking Ibruprofen 3 times a day for the past week but it doesn t seem to be getting any better. I am aged 63.
Dear Sir/Madam I have gone through your query and read your symptoms. In my opinion, looking at your age taking too much of ibuprofen is not good for stomach and overall health. I would like you to see your doctor and get examined, because without seeing you its difficult to find the cause of your pain. once we are able to manage the cause, your requirement of the analgesics is going to reduce, moreover you can take more safer durgs, like etoricoxib. I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
