I have had this problem for a while but now its worse. I have this excruciating sharp pain by my left shoulder blade and at first it was every once in a while that I would get it but now its everyday and also in two spots now. It hurts so bad and right at this moment i can barely use my left arm, or move cause it hurts. Ah, i have tried icyhot, the pain patch things and ibprofin and nothing is really helping.
