Q: after i flipped the mattress as required every 6 mo, i woke up with left shoulder& left back pain.xray showed clear lung&chest.still painful for 2 week?

: You may have sprained the muscles. You may take acetaminophen for pain, no more than 4 g/day, no alcohol. Regular aerobic exercise of sufficient intensity to induce sweating will improve muscle health.
