"Rhomboid Pain": How To Fix Shoulder Blade Pain Quickly.

Got pain between your shoulder blade and spine? It’s easy to think you need Rhomboid exercises to fix Rhomboid pain… but it’s much more likely to be coming from the rib joints (where the ribs connect to your spine) OR referred from your lower neck.

THE CAUSE OF SHOULDER BLADE PAIN...
Posture: Sitting or standing in a slouched posture position can cause joints to jam in the base of the neck and the rib joints, so improving you posture is the first step to stop this type of scapula pain or shoulder blade pain.
Sleeping position: Laying on your side with your shoulder pushed forward can jam the joints between our ribs and the spine, causing thoracic spine pain and muscle tightness over those rib joints. (The “costovertebral joints”)
Text Neck: Spinal joints at the base of the neck get jammed and irritated from forward head posture or looking down at mobile phones & laptops all day. This joint irritation can refer pain below that area causing mid back pain or upper back pain on one side.
HOW THESE EXERCISE FIX “RHOMBOID PAIN”…
Exercise 1.
The Towel Roll Technique loosens the joints between the ribs and the spine that can cause this type of rib pain. It also improves neck position, so the lower neck nerves don’t refer pain to the upper back.
Exercise 2.
The Thread The Needle exercises mobilises the costovertebral joints (rib joints) and gets blood flowing through the rhomboids and other scapula stabilisers. So, it’s great for costovertebral pain and Rhomboid rehab too!
Exercise 3.
A Thoracic Cat-Cow is great for mobilising the thoracic spine, rib joints and lower neck joints, so it's great for middle back pain relief.
Exercise 4.
Simple Side Bending with your arms up mobilise the spine and ribs in a different direction. This can be great to release those rib joints!
Exercise 5.
What I call a Chin Tuck PLUS is one of the best neck retraction exercises to improve posture that causes pain over the Rhomboid area. Protruding the chest increases the area of joints mobilised, but it’s great to strengthen important posture muscles too.

[@A.I.-]

The same here. I wasn't even searching, but it recommended it to me. I haven't even searched anything similar in other websites. I didn't search/visit for any medication, exercises, physio, pain, etc... I didn't even know it was called the Rhomboid pain. Anyways here's my story. I've been very flexible with my shoulders throughout my life. I always sleep on my side for many years with no problem. 2 weeks ago, I was sleeping on my side and then I sneezed. It pulled my shoulder as I sneezed, I thought I dislocated my shoulder or ripped my shoulder blade of its muscles. Then the pain on my back spine and lower side neck began right away. I figured, it just needs some rest. It's been 2 weeks and I've noticed that the pain hasn't improved. This has never happened to me, asleep on my side sneezing, for the last 40years of my life, but only 2 weeks ago. It's been 2 weeks of pain and now I was contemplating of what I was going to do about it. See a doctor and get it x-ray. But then suddenly, saw it on my recommended on youtube. For the people who says this is merely an incident of "Coincidence", I have to discard that idea because coincidentally, they have never recommended random stuff to me like ballet dancing, coding programming, baking cakes, lizards, etc... All random things that has nothing to do with me. This is my first time on this channel. Thank you very much Stefan for the information.

Now after seeing this video that I wasn't looking for, I know what it is. For me the pain would last a few days, to a week. For years my bad posture, looking down a my cellphone and being overweight didn't help either. I am doing better with daily exercise, and my posture is good. I also know that when I sleep with two pillows, It makes my neck and back hurt, so I stopped doing that all the time.

It’s like cracking your knuckles. The bad thing about it is now I have done it so much that my neck and upper spine are starting to hurt. I get severe headaches where I have to lay down on the floor.

Oh wow, as many have stated before me here, this video was recommended to me by the algorithm. I have struggled with pain in my upper back that has been increasing over the past few years. The therapists I've gone to doesn't seem to be listening to me, and they all give me some standard stuff i guess everyone gets, but nothing ever helped. I even stopped going to the gym for half a year because the therapists thought i was overworked.. I wasn't, it didn't help. I have however been open to them about everything, how i sleep, how i work out, how i sit and all, but i had this feeling after while that they weren't listening. What scared me the most about this video is that the sleeping position is exactly the one i use most of the time, because of sleep apnea, i sleep in recovery position with my knee out, this to ensure my airways are free, and i have been sleeping like this for years. And combined with the fact that the chair i use on my PC is a recliner which i suspected could be a culprit because i bought it just before my pain started, and it has this headrest that bends my neck forward. And to top it off, that neck stretch you do in this video, was something i discovered myself a few months ago, it was not taught to me by my therapists, i discovered it myself, and it helped me tremendously. I went from not being able to do dumbbell trap shrugs, to be able to do them over night. As i said, this video is almost scary how accurate it is.

@@BodyFixExercises Thanks! I have another problem as well that i haven't found a solution to yet. I have a Prolapse in L5. Over the past couple of years, as i mentioned, my back has become worse over time, actually both lower and upper. The cause can still be the chair, i don't know. My doctor suspects the prolapse has been there for a very long time, and might NOT be the cause of my lower back issues. I work as a bouncer, and i stand upright for 6-7 hours at work. And this causes immense pain in my back that starts after about 2-3 hours. By leaning backwards towards a wall with my legs about 20 degrees forwards, is a relief. The day after work, it feels like i have been run over by a tractor. I'm completely wasted in my back. And the pain sometimes moves upwards and over to my chest underneath my left arm, not downwards to my legs, which is usual with prolapse in lower back. You have any idea what can be the cause and/or exercises/stretches i can try out?

[@williamstandish2926]

You described the back pain I have perfectly. And one of the reasons for it. You showed the exact way I was laying on my side with the shoulder forward.

[@BodyFixExercises]

My next video will be on how to sleep (among other things) to avoid this pain. Hopefully I can give people a few helpful options

Wow, Just Wow! Just had this pop up on my recommendation. I have been dealing with this for 3 years. You were spot on. My right shoulder and C7 herniated disc. I am IMPRESSED. I can’t wait to try these. I also have a bone spur on my c7 pressing a nerve so I have numbness also. Btw that is exactly how I sleep….. I have searched and talked with different drs, therapist. Non connected these dots. All I can say is Thank you! And I am going to be doing these exercises asap! Have a great day!

I’ve been through the mill of doctors to relieve debilitating spine and neck and neck pain. Am now having some relief from steroid epidurals about every six months. No one could tell me why I had so much pain. Long story short, it seems the rib joints must be part of the problem because - your exercises and posture advice are helping. BIG thank you ❤️

[@BodyFixExercises]

That's soooo great to hear! Thanks a lot for commenting! (The next video I release will focus on the lower neck part a bit more. That might even help too, so keep an eye out for that.)

With no specific name for the area or otherwise detailed plan, I have merely been doing what helps. IT WORKS. I will continue my routine and incorporate the few movements you revealed. Thank you again keep going please! 🤟 🙏.

[@ezekielmcville5101]

🎉 Thank you sir for the BALL IN SOCK idea... one of the best things I've learnt on KZbin 🎉

[@interestinginfo6765]

This pain comes from the neck not the shoulders. Been dealing with it for 40 years. Get a hard smooth ball…about the size of a golf ball… put it up against a wall (you don’t mind making indentations on) and with the opposite hand, to the triggers that are flared, put the ball between the wall and your body. Find the trigger spot(s) and lean back and push the ball into that trigger hard. Once you get the hang of it you can move the ball around slightly by moving your body. It’s going to hurt. Don’t fight the pain. Breath. Stop periodically and moving your head around to gently stretch your neck at every angle. Take deep breaths to release the stiffness and spasm. This has saved me from surgery and kept me functional.

[@jdawg4790]

I've spent thousands on chiropractors, massages,gadgets and medications and no one has ever talked about it being the rib joints. These exercises truly helped much love and appreciation going your way brother God bless!!!

Great selection of exercises I also recommend these for my clients and do them myself from time to time. My Rhomboids are almost always stiff due to lifting and screen time. Most side sleepers will benefit from these exercises even if you have a good position. There is always going to be some friction and stiffness in those area's from side sleeping no matter how great your position is. You will likely move in your sleep as well, morning exercises are very underrated. Great video!
