1. When did the pain begin? 3 weeks ago

2. What were you doing at the time? Or did the pain come on gradually over time? I was doing heavy barbell shrugs .. i felt pain in my right upper back when i was lifting the bar off the rack..

3. Where, anatomically, is the pain? rhomboids"right side"

4. What does the pain feel like? Sharp? Dull? Aching? Stabbing? Shooting? sharp/stabbing

5. Is the pain constant, or intermittent, or only on certain motions? Certain motions

6. What motions make your pain worse?
movements where i have to stretch my rhomboids.. uhmm squeezing my shoulder blades worsens it too..

7. What, if anything, makes your pain better? ive been using a pain relieving cream.. but its not helping

8. Does your pain radiate to any other part of your body? no

9. What things could you do before, that you cannot do now because of your injury? pull movements..

10. What is your main concern regarding the pain and its consequences? want to get better..

11. Have you ever injured that part of your body before? If so, how? no

12. Is your pain getting worse over time? And if so, how much worse over what time period? for 3 weeks the pain was constant ..but it got worse today, i decided to take a big time off until my muscle heals.. i think if i took a rest the week i got that injury, it wouldve been better..
the past 2 weeks i stopped training traps/pull movements..
i am going to a chiro. as soon as im done with my final exams..
there is a similar injury that i found on this link.. Upper back pain (rhomboids)
