the past few days i have been having bad
back pain. i'm tall and skinny. i've
always had a crappy back throughout my
life. anyway this has been happening
lately: whenever i inhale, my upper left
back hurts really bad. it feels like it is
located around my left scapula, to the
right of it. i plan on seeing a chiro just
because my back sucks, but this has been
happening the past few days and i've got a
tournament this weekend and i want to see
if there's something i can do. i almost
want someone to stand on that spot and
push on it, something tells me that that
would help it or make it feel better, but
since i'm not an expert i decided that
wasn't such a good idea. any help would be
greatly appreciated, as this hurts real
bad. thanks.

hm ok i will try that. does anyone know
anything else as to why and what can fix
it rather than just applying some cream
that will only help the pain?

There could be many reasons why this is
happening. You say you have a tournament,
is it a sports tornament? You could have
pulled some muscles. An ice pack for 15
minutes at a time can be helpful. Have
you been ill lately? If you have, you
really need to see a doctor.

You could have a subluxed rib or a somatic
dysfunction of your thoracic spine. A
very skilled chiropracter should be able
to detect this for you, and hopefully get
it back into place as well. Osteopathic
physicians who do manipualtion therapy are
an even better choice.
