Pulled muscle or nerve HURTS like ... Sugestions?

[tbolfist]

I have the worst pain in my upper back to the left of my spine...It feels like the muscle, like a knot...

I tried to go to the gym and work through it, but was no able to have a "great" workout...It was ok, but the last hard rep wasn't gonna happen...

Anything to ease this??

its pretty commmon to get stiff around T4 which will often radiate out towards the scap and even down the arm sometimes.


trying doing some stretches to help mobilise the area( flexion and extension of the T spine) or go see a Physio.
heat packs and massage might help

Wow T4, that's specific....
It sounds like the lower trap/rhomboid area is hypertonic (tight). Stretching and heat are good advice.
