When to See a Doctor
You should visit a doctor when your shoulder blade pain becomes too serious and does not improve with time. Other symptoms might be followed like excessive sweating, lightheadedness, chest pain, shortness of breath, coughing up blood, redness or swelling in the legs, irregular or quick heartbeat, fever, loss of vision, loss of consciousness, or one-side paralysis. In these cases, immediate medical attention is needed to prevent life-threatening complications.[4]
