thoracic nerve Damage? (dont know how this happend)

[dinev]

Recently my shoulder blades have been irritating me and kind of on a weird angle ... the muscles feel tight and very uncomfortable ...  i don't know what is causing this, i haven't had any recent injuries or falls.  Im thinking i have an winging scapula/thoracic nerve damage. I will be going to get this checked out but i wanted to see if medhelp can help me in anyway.

Dear Dinev,
I fully agree with the answer Dr Anurag has provided you.So did you visited the physiotherapist and neurologist?

Thank you very much for your questions; although it is quite difficult for me to give you a precise opinion here without being able to examine you, but I would try to provide you some relevant information about your shoulder pain. Your symptoms could be suggestive of either some nerve injury or a pressure on the nerve due to the muscle spasms. Another possibility in your case could be damaged the soft-tissues such as muscles and ligaments if you are over-doing any shoulder exercises or lifting heavy weights. Since you have persistent pain, I would recommend you to see a neurologist who can evaluate the details of your case and could better determine the insight of your situation.  In addition, it will be best if you would also visit a physiotherapist to let him/her assess your back and shoulders.  Hope this helps.
