What Causes Pain In The Left Shoulder Blade?
i have had a dull achy muscular pain in my left shoulder blade area now for three weeks. I had had massage and had minor relief, but it comes back. I have seen a chiropractor as well. No help. tingling sensation down inner arm to elbow. There are also a couple of fatty cysts in elbow area and shoulder blade area too... do you think they may be touching a nerve ?

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to a muscular strain. I recommend using anti-inflammatory medication such as Acetaminophen three times a day. I also recommend using Voltaren gel for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
