Hi Lybrate user ,no need to worry, a frequent and common reason for shoulder blade discomfert is a muscle strain, also known as a pulled muscle. This may result from overuse or stress on the arms or upper back. A muscle may also become strained if you've slept in a new bed, a new position, or even recently started a new exercise program.
Hope you get answer of yours question
thanks

It is called as periarthritis shoulder and for that you can do hotwater fermentation and ice therapy at home. You shall also take physiotherapy treatment called shortwave diathermy which would help you to get relieved with pain. After sleep getting up in the morning will be painful if you work in the computers for long which will definitely affect the neck and shoulder as the constant posture makes the joint to become stiffened. That's why you get usually pain in shoulder joints & in the back. •...more
