A member asked:
When i try and straighten up and i don't have good posture - my shoulder blades stick out! i find it irritating. any suggestions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spine nerve irritate: Bad posture leads to muscle tightness. If the muscles between the shoulder blades are very tight, it will make them stick out. You may also have neck nerve irritation problems leading to chronic spasm and tightness of muscles in those areas. You will need to be evaluated by your family doctor and a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation.
