What could cause back pain between the shoulder blades and at back of the neck? The pain and stiffness seems to worsen in the late afternoon. I had it before [I started surfing] the Internet so I don’t think it’s that. I am in good health, vegetarian and run.
I always advise people with a chronic health problem to get examined to know what you’re dealing with. It may be muscular spasms, vertebral structural misalignments, or pain referred from some other site or reflecting problems in another organ system.
A good chiropractor can properly diagnose and treat this type of problem and refer to another specialist if necessary. Most likely its something simple and straightforward but would require changes in posture, work station, exercises and physical therapy.
