A member asked:

I have pain under my left shoulder blade for no apparent reason. how do i figure out what's wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Go see a Doctor: An examination by your doctor is what you should do to figure out what is wrong.. He may order a chest xray for a start to make sure there is no serious problem in your chest/lungs.
