Since late February, early March, I've been having moderate to severe
back pain in between my spine and up toward my left scapula. The
pain doesn't descend past the 10th or 11th rib, but doesn't go past mid-scapula area. At times, there are specific points that are painful to the touch, other times a slight push on the general area makes for a painful rib crushing-like feeling. During the
pain which can be all day, certainly after activities (but not only), and at night, it's tough to breath. Some days there is no
pain, others there is a lot.
The
pain can subside with various positioning of my left arm, and when I curl my spine. It's probably obvious that I should see a doctor, but what should I be expecting?
Any help would be great.
