How To Reduce Pain In Between Shoulder Blades?
Hi since Sunday I ve noticed a pain in my upper back in between my shoulder blades it feels like a golf ball is stuck there and every time I eat drink and swallow it hurts. If I have a hot drink it burns. Just wondered if you could help me . Many thanks.

This is Dr Amit.
In my opinion it can occur due to lifting heavy weights, over stretching or due to any physical trauma. As you have not written anything specific about how it started and what is the nature of pain we can not conclude anything.
So i will advise you to get digital X ray after consulting your doctor and meanwhile for the pain you can take analgesic like brufen or combiflam (Take antacids before it to avoid gastritis) and Take proper rest
