Suggest Treatment For Shoulder Blade Pain
About 3/4 of a year ago I started to notice a dull stitching pain on my left side between my shoulder blade and my spine . In the past I would have said that something was out of place in my back. I have gone to 2 different chiropractors for adjustments over the year and the pain is still there. Lately I have also noticed a pain in the esopogial area again on the left side of my body and also sometimes my heart seems to thump hard, it beat normally 60 -70 beats per minute. I don t know if it matters but I live in an area where Lymes Disease is common. Thank you , Eric

Hello
I have understood your symptoms,
There is radiating pain from inter scapular region downwards. Usually cervical disc bulge leads to nerve compression .
so I will advise you physiotherapy like Interferential therapy and auto traction for early recovery.
Static and against resistance guided exercise therapy may help in this case.
You can consult physiotherapist for that.
MRI cervical spine will help you to see severity of nerve compression.
Consult your doctor for investigation.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Take care
