Scapula The medial edge pain caused by? At present, many middle-aged people, especially those who have been sitting in office for a long time, are often troubled by such pain. I don’t know how to treat it?
Just a few days ago, I met a middle-aged man who complained about the pain inside the bone suture on the medial edge of the scapula. He has been to many hospitals for diagnosis and treatment, but there was no improvement in the end.
It will be very painful every day as long as you work and face the computer. You even tell me that you don’t want to talk or chat with others because of this pain. You are depressed and have a painful expression every day.
For this reason, people around you misunderstood and said that they were "pretending to be noble"! I believe that friends who are in pain in this position are also confused. I don’t know what the reason is? Today, Dr. Kong will talk to you about the four major factors that are more common in .
Reason 1: Tumor
The reason why this factor is put in the front is that when there is a tumor, it is likely to cause pain on the medial edge of the scapula. is easily misdiagnosed or misdiagnosed in clinical practice.
But in fact, its incidence rate is not high and not very common, but it cannot be ignored! Especially when there is a tumor in the lung, you need to be careful of the pain in this location.
However, don’t be nervous about this, don’t experience pain on the medial edge of the scapula, and be worried all day long. is worried if it will be a tumor? Why do you say that? It was because of what happened to me. A few years ago, my mother-in-law was worried about this problem because of the pain in her shoulder blades. She went to the hospital alone with her family on her back to the hospital for examination, and the structure was not found out.
Although it is common, people often ignore the problem of the cervical spine, because you are always used to considering the problem wherever it hurts, and rarely think of it on the cervical spine.
In fact, the pain in the area of the scapula is mainly due to the innervation here from the cervical spine. As shown in the figure above, the dorsal scapula nerve penetrates from between 3-4 and 4-5 of the cervical spine, and finally reaches the upper back of the shoulder and the medial edge of the scapula.
Once the intervertebral disc between 3-4 and 4-5 of cervical vertebrae degenerate, herniate, etc., or the two vertebrae 3-4 of are displaced, , it will jamm the nerve, causing pain in the upper back of the shoulder and the medial margin of the scapula.
You can think about it. Nowadays, most people work for a long time and bow their heads for a long time, which is most likely to cause degeneration of the cervical spine. If there is no symptoms, who would think about whether their cervical spine is good? In fact, most people have to bear too much load every day, and they have already degenerated.
For this reason, the first thing that needs to be considered most is the cervical spine when the medial edge of the scapula is the cervical spine. In order to clarify this problem, you don’t have to choose to take a cervical MRI. It is not only expensive, but also may not be able to find problems. You only need to take a positive side X-film of the neck to make it clear. As shown in the figure below:
Reason 3: Fascial strain degeneration
pain in this position, some people will also be caused by myofascial stimulation of for a long time due to myofascial stimulation due to long-term traction, and its elasticity decreases, and insufficient compressive resistance will cause pain.
is generally seen in people with bad posture, long-term bent and hunched and sat for a long time, or people with round shoulder body shape, high and low shoulder , or people with long-term heavy physical labor .
Generally, when you have such a bad posture, you must first check the cervical spine problem. In the absence of abnormal cervical spine, then consider whether it is the pain caused by abnormal posture. This type of pain is generally difficult to detect. Only by going to the rehabilitation medicine department to find a doctor for your posture and mechanical analysis.
Reason 4: Dislocation of the thoracic vertebrae
This type of pain caused by the medial edge of the scapula is not very common. It is generally seen in people who sit for a long time and bow their heads. Because after the stability of the vertebrae decreases, the body needs to rotate and grow in the body at work and cause dislocation problems.
When there is dislocation disorder in thoracic spine , it is mainly seen in the upper thoracic spine, and often the thoracic segments are prone to dislocation. Among the patients I have treated, the two types of people are the most common.
Although it causes local pain in the medial marginal area of the scapula, it still has some characteristics. The range of pain is more limited to a certain position on the central axis and will not be too wide.
What is different from general pain is that the pain caused by this type of problem is often induced when turning around. Therefore, it is also very easy to identify pain in the medial margin of the scapula caused by other factors.
Summary
The medial edge pain of the scapula is common in our daily life, but it is not difficult to deal with; generally, except for the pain caused by tumor factors, it is more effective in conservative treatment. It is recommended to look at the rehabilitation medicine department.
If you have this kind of pain and cannot be cured for a long time, you often have no cause of the disease or the doctor who has received the doctor is not professional enough. You can try changing the suggestions I gave to take a look, and you may have unexpected gains.
I wish you a speedy recovery!
