Pain between the shoulder blades, upper back pain, or interscapular pain, can come from several areas following a car accident. Depending on the mechanism or injury, pain can come from the neck, such as facet joints in the cervical vertebrae, referred pain from a cervical disc injury, a muscle strain or from the mid back (called the Thoracic spine). Whiplash pain commonly includes areas in the upper back just below the shoulder area. Due to the "whiplash" effect of the neck during a rear end collision, Thoracic spine injuries and soft tissue structures can also be overlooked and misdiagnosed. The most common complaints are: shoulder blade pain which moves into the shoulder and down the arm, mid back stiffness, tension, pain while turning the head or looking down, neck stiffness and headaches.
