And pretty rare leaves is a pain between the shoulder, are the reasons most people do not known. Many consider it just sort of "misunderstanding", which will soon go by itself over. And many then wonder, in the face of very serious diseases. The Problem is, a pain is rarely very strong, especially because this part of the spine slowly. And people, in the majority, prefer to ignore, instead of going to the doctor. But the causes of such pain, the most difficult. So, what can serve the cause of such pain?
Diseases that leaves to the formation of pain between the shoulder
First and foremost, it is, of course, the problems of the spine. The most common causes are in this case:
- Kyphosis of the thoracic spine;
- kyphoscoliosis;
- Protrusion of the disc in the thoracic spine;
- Osteochondrosis this section of the spine;
- Scoliosis;
- spondylarthrosis;
- Shoulder-Blade Periarthritis;
- intercostal neuralgia.
But the spine is not the only possible cause. Pain of this type can occur, and in other diseases of the internal organs. The cause of this pain is very often a coronary heart disease and Angina pectoris. It is clear that in this disease the attempts of the spine to treat to nothing lead, the cause of the pain elsewhere.
Pain between the shoulder blades diseases can Diss cause such severe diseases of the lung and of the pleura, diseases of the liver and gallbladder (Hepatitis, cholecystitis),.
We should also mention such a thing like "professional disease". In this case, the Problem lies with the specificity of the work, or better said, the low mobility and sedentary work. In this case, the muscles and ligaments of the back are faced with the weakening in combination with a long tension of the muscles of the shoulder girdle. With this Problem frequently, typists, operators, PC, designers, tailors, drivers, etc. faced
We will note that, in General, the thoracic spine of the very slow, therefore, various degenerative processes in it develop only rarely. That is to say, even the spine is rarely the cause of such pain. Much more often this kind of pain about the problems of the internal organs, and the most common cause of spasm of the muscles in the interscapular Region, but also the problems of the tendons and ligaments is exactly.
If the pain is due to problems with the tendons and ligaments, it is different and full of feelings that don't immediately disappear when changing body position. Even the pain has the property, distributed over practically the entire spine, and in some cases in the area of the heart. For this reason, problems with the determination of the exact localization of the pain occurs sometimes.
The complexity of the diagnosis
As you can see, the causes for pain in the back between the shoulder blades, very many, complicates greatly the diagnosis. An accurate diagnosis a doctor often spend a lot of research, which is not connected at first glance. For example, many do not understand why, after x-ray and magnetic resonance imaging, you need to go to the cardiologist for the investigation and implementation of an electrocardiogram. But all because of the doctor to exclude must all of the possible causes of pain, attention to the severity of the potential heart disease, the osteochondrosis, the rupture of the intervertebral disc, etc.
The cause of the pain is often located precisely in the muscles, what the doctors know, but you just have to exclude all other possible diagnoses, especially if the prescribed treatment brings quick results.
Treatment of pain in the back between the shoulder blades
It is, of course, that the treatment of pain, in this case, defines the full scope of diagnosis, and, accordingly, may have been very different. But as we found out already, what is the reason mostly in the muscles, let us understand this variation.
In the case when the source of the pain in the muscles, it leaves a burning sensation (burning pain) and the load in the area between the shoulder. But enough of the eyelash shrug of the shoulders, or rotate several times with the hands, and the pain subsided, and then at all will take place. Worse than pain "is" in the area of the heart, and according to the change of the body not immediately – these symptoms are typical for diseases of the thoracic spine and the heart.
Danger areas
As we have already said, the most common of this disease to people, either yourself, a sedentary life lead to suffering, or it is a specific feature of their profession. In particular, office workers, operators, PC, programmer, cashier, all, you are forced to spend a lot of time in one Position (the back is slightly bent, head lowered, working only with the hands). As a result of its attitude starts to break down, flaccid muscles and ligaments of the back, is the risk of development of scoliosis (not to cure, taking into account the age).
Characteristic is the fact that develop very often in various diseases of the spine, especially for people who a sedentary lifestyle. Only the cause of the pain is quite different – osteochondrosis, spondylarthrosis, etc. In this case, it is the people a Priori have to have a longer treatment. So you don't forget an old proverb, which says that the movement – this is life.
What to do and how to treat?
Unfortunately, almost none of the above-mentioned diseases do not heal, just as in the domestic conditions of the people's resources. Pain relievers only temporary and quite misleading, effect, being, in fact, the treatment. And physiotherapy, the appointed, the basis of the treatment of many diseases of the spine (it is used in the treatment of problems of the muscles), also a doctor. In addition, the doctor needs to read carefully exercises in your specific case, otherwise, exercise therapy is ineffective. So, in any case, a visit to the doctor is necessary.
You probably won't be appointed-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, various physiotherapy treatments, massages and physiotherapy. However, exercise therapy is just to the decrease in the pain.
It is also worth to various physiotherapeutic procedures. This method of treatment is a helper, to him belong the electrophoresis, ultrasonic therapy, magneto-therapy, various types of electro-therapy, manual therapy, foot reflex zone massage and Spa treatment. These methods will rarely be the cause of the pain can eliminate, but to eliminate well the pain and makes life easier for the patients.
So, if the pain between the shoulder blades should immediately consult a doctor. You need the advice of several professionals, traumatologist, neurologist, rheumatologist, and cardiologist. In the future, you will need the help of a massage therapist and chiropractor.
Prevention of pain
The only secure prevention in this case is an active life style, excessive stress and harmful habits. Do you need support for a specific physical activity to always move an eye on posture, sleeping in the right circumstances and correctly. Yes, such prophylaxis requires a permanent control of the self and their way of life, but it is much easier, than to treat a variety of diseases of the spine, muscles and ligaments of the back.
