Most Common Cause of Inner Shoulder Blade Pain

In this video I show you what the most common cause of inner shoulder blade pain is. Many patients complain about inner shoulder blade pain and receive treatment in that area to no avail. I learned a long time ago that the lower cervical spine is the major source of inner shoulder blade pain so I started to perform more cervical traction and then we started to see results and relief of shoulder blade pain.
👉Intervertebral disc injuries and lower cervical nerve root compression is always on the back of my mind when people have shoulder blade pain here.
👉A simple way to find out if your inner shoulder blade pain is coming from your neck or from the muscles around your shoulder blade is to tilt the head back, rotate it to the affected side and tilt it to the same side. If the shoulder blade pain increases, then it is likely coming from your neck.
👉This should be followed up with deep tendon reflex testing, sensation testing, manual muscle testing and the performing the cervical distraction test.
