Localised pain in upper back
8 Answers
I have an area on the upper right hand side of my back which is giving me gip.
The area feels about 2-3 inches in diameter and is just inside my right scapula.
I thought it was a muscle knot but I'm not sure now.
I've tried gentle stretches, massage, upper back pain specific yoga manoevres, anti inflammatories (diclofenac and ibuprofen) checking my posture etc but the bloody thing is still there after about a month, it's driving me to distraction.
Any ideas ?

When I get tense the muscles in my upper back usually give me trouble, it's just a bit weird that there is this one spot remaining the same.
