What Causes Cough And Pain Under Right Shoulder Blade?

I had a very bad cough & cold which started before Christmas, the cold went leaving me with a white thick plehgm. Have had the cough since which has slowly decreased but find I am suffering with a constant nagging pain under my right shoulder blade. Have been given Nolotil capsules to take but am un-sure as the write up on them sounds quite dangerous.
