I'm 24 and have never really suffered from
any 'pain' problems. I stayed up all night
for Christmas and then slept at my
parents' house for about 6 hours. I woke
up with a pain in my back, near the inside
(spinal) edge of my shoulder blade. I'm
guessing it's a result of sleeping in a
strange position in a bed I'm not used to,
but not sure exactly -what- the problem
is. Pulled muscle?
It hurts if I breathe in too deeply, too
suddenly, or when i cough/clear my throat.
My range of motion is fine. It does,
however, hurt a bit more if I'm bending
forward. And also if I'm sitting down and
turn my body to the left or right. Last
night I slept in my own bed in a normal
position for me, but when I woke up it
still hurt just about as badly as before.
I slept just fine, without being woken up
by pain or anything.
Other general notes:
I'm underweight
I spend a lot of time at the computer and
don't exercise

Hello Innocentsinner,
It may well have been the mattress or?
Back pains are strange things, and
sometimes difficult to determine what
caused it(them). Just to be on the safe
side I'd suggest making an appointment to
see your doctor.
Take care.

I have experienced a similar type of pain
and believe it to be caused by sleeping
incorrectly. Could be the result of over
fatigue and positioning. What is
preventing you from regular exercise.
Perhaps a few exercises that target the
lattisimus dorsi muscles and spinus
erectus muscles might do you some good.
