Helping People Move Better
This could be a problem with your posture or maybe your backpack is too heavy. Something like that.
If you’re not afraid of the chiropractor, go see one – s/he can fix you right up. A really good massage therapist can help with this as well. Look for a massage therapist who works out of a physical therapist or chiropractor’s office – they’re usually able to give you deep-but-not-too–deep work that helps a lot. The massage therapists who work out of spas and beauty salons aren’t usually as experienced helping with injuries or pain.
In the meantime, do frequent, gentle stretches, take warm baths (in epsom salts if you have them), use an ice pack wrapped in a light towel on the most painful spots, etc. Don’t do anything that could make the injury worse – keep your movements slow and deliberate. Look for Arnica cream or massage oil in the health food section of the grocery store. Rub that into the sore spots.
This doesn’t sound serious, but if your gut tells you that it is, then get to a doctor and maybe get an X ray.
Best wishes!
shoulder?idk..
chest stuffs and all? acid reflux..maybe..

I’m not positive… I would definitely go to the doctor though to get it checked out. It’s possible 1 of your organs is being pinched, which can cause severe discomfort. I hope you feel better soon!! :]
