Why does it hurt right below my shoulder blade?

Why does it hurt right below my shoulder blade?

I'm 20 years old, and right below my right shoulder blade, I have a really strange pain. That area's been hurting me for about a few days. What could be causing it? Do I need to see a doctor?

You should see a physical therapist and or primary care provider

If you are a female, shoulder blade pain may be an indication of a heart condition. If your heart is clear, then it may be a postural concern. Either way, consult a local physical therapist.

Must be a muscle sprain on the blade especially Rhomboidis muscle.
