I have had injured shoulders now for the better part of the last decade. Within the last few months,though, I have been experiencing new,constant,pain in my upper back between my shoulders. Are these pains related? What can I do?
*ADD INFO*
I sit at the computer a lot, and I do not workout very much these days. I'm about 6 feet tall, 175lbs. So, weight isn't my problem.

My sister had a constant pain between her shoulders. She went to many places and had her upper back worked on. It later turned out that she had a disc bulge in her neck that was putting pressure on a nerve root that causes pain between the shoulders. She got her disc bulge fixed in her neck and the pain went away.
Would get an evaluation from your Doctor and then if there are positive findings get an MRI of your neck.

- Go to a chiropractor. They can help assess where you pain is coming from and adjust you to help your back. They will probably also give you some home exercises to help strengthen your back.

Chiropractic Student0% 0 Votes - I had very similar pain symptoms. Went to a good chiropractor and within 2 - 3 weeks it was better. It's referred type pain stemming from nerves in the cervicle area of the neck.
Sorry, can't remember what they called it...
