What Causes Pain Between Shoulder Blades And Tightness In Chest?

Ive swam for 5 years. I swim butterfly, and this started after I swam it. but its different than old swimming injury s ive had before. Right upper chest tightness and right upper back shoulder pain between the shoulder blade. If I move a certain way its really sharp enough that I flinch on the inside on the right side of my chest instead of tight. is that relative pain from my shoulder, is that possible? Ive been trying to follow RICEs but I just want to know if that can be relative pain?

Hello,
I have studied your case and I think that you might be having spasm of shoulder girdle muscles. I would suggest you following.
1.Hot water fomentation.
2.Tablet Myospaz or myoril one daily.
3. VOlitran ointment local application after hot water fomentation.
4.Avoid jerky activity.
