upper back pain stretches

How can I treat my upper back pain?
I was stretching my arms (maybe too much) and I suddenly got a pain in the upper back (between the shoulder blades). It is quite painful when I try to take a deep breath, or carry something relatively heavy. What can I do about it?
(Of course, if it persists, I’ll see a doctor)
advil will work very good to help reduce inflammation. if youre really in pain, try taking 800mg three times a day, every 8 hours. if you have any problems with internal bleeding, stomach ulcers, or any other bleeding disorder, dont take the advil though. you may also want to try a heating pad as this may help to reduce the pain as well.
