    Re: Injury between left shoulder and spine

    Hi Kscorder
    Sorry to hear you have such lingering pain in your shoulder.
    A couple of questions - does the shoulder movement/crunchin correlate with the pain you feel around your shoulder blade? Does one noticeably bring on the other?
    There is a good chance it may be postural as you say but another area worth looking into is referral from you neck.
    This is pretty difficult to figure out online so it would be worth booking in with a physical therapist or equivalent profession over there to check this side of things out.. especially if gradually worsening. In the mean time try improving your posture for short periods of time and set reminders on your phone/screen in front of you to 'reset' every now and then. If the pain decreases with this change then you know you are on the right path.

    Hope this helps

    Re: Injury between left shoulder and spine

    Thank you for your reply to my post. To answer your questions: No, the shoulder movement/crunching does not correlate with the pain I feel around the shoulder blade. I find myself rolling my shoulder throughout the day out of habit and it's as though I can feel my scapula being pushed through layers of tight muscle and that's where the popping comes from, although I'm not sure. It hurts whether I move my shoulder or not.
