i have a question for you all....

ok i have this pain in my left shoulder blade....do you think it could be gas?? or a pulled muscle? i have never had this before but was told by a friend that didn't have WLS that she gets it in her shoulder blade area at times and its just gas...if it is gas...is there anything i can do to relieve the pressure/pain??

thanks so much!!

hugs

Hi Judy....no it isn't gas. My best friend is a physical therapist. I get it once in awhile. It has to do with the muscles and nerves. You must have pulled it some how. Or in my case it is from stress. My friend does a massage in that area and it goes away. You should also rotate hot and cold in the area. That helps alot.

thanks connie for answering me...maybe its from saturday night that i pulled this muscle...rick and i were wrestling around here and he likes to play rough lol i keep telling him i am delicate...but anyhow i will ask him to massage it for me tonight when he gets home...if it doesn't help any i have no idea what i will do....i don't have a dr here yet....plus no money to pay one either...

When my gallbladder began giving me fits, it began in the shoulder and really hurt and finally got where it hurt for me to breathe and it hurt in my shoulder blade, left shoulder blade.  There, though, could be multiple reasons for pain in your shoulder: pulled muscle, torn rotator cuff, stress, heart problems, pneumonia.  Well, as you can see, it could be anything.  Go to the doctor and let them take a look.

thanks for answering me jeannie...i am sure its a muscle pulled from wrestling with rick saturday night...this started hurting me sunday morning and lets up at times but i can tell its still there...i need to find a dr here in ohio and money to pay one also...

thanks again!!!

hugs

WHEN I HURT LIKE THAT, IT WAS MY GALL BLADDER.  YES, I HAD IT REMOVED.
MY GRANDFATHER TOLD MY MOM THAT WHEN HIS HEART FLARED UP, IT MADE HIS SHOULDER BLADE HURT.

Judy...I gert that sometimes when I sleep "wrong" on my pillow....I just go to my chiropractor and he does some maneuver and it goes away......but a nice massage ...with oil...of course sounds good also. ..LOL Marti
