upper back pain anyone?

[missykat]

for the past few months now i have been getting persistant upper back pain mostly on my shoulder blades but only wen i move about or move in general wen im lying down i dont feel it sometimes acompanied by tingling. ive heard this is a symptom of lung cancer :ohmy: of course its irrational but cant help but worry. im 24 i dont smoke and i do carry my one year old around alot and dont have very good posture :blush:

You might have pulled a muscle, I do that once or twice a year, but it usually only lasts a week or so. Does your family have a history of scoliosis?

my mam has a curve on her spine. its been lasting months now, not unbearable pain just annoying and uncomfortable espec the tingling mostly on the left shoulder blade. whats scoliosis?

actually th tingly is anywhere on my upper back... :mad:

hi missykat, we feel a lot of tension in our shoulders/back which causes pain. When you're lying down the muscles will be relaxed so you won't feel the pain as much. x

I have had this on and off for months, I got that bad one night i went to A & E convinced i had lung cancer or bone cancer needless to say my xray was clear. Its all anxiety i found after i had been on my tablets for a while it subsided. At the time i was not convinced it was anxiety but i certainly know now !!!!!! If you are still unsure have a visit to your G.P and they will put your mind at rest.
