Not that this is very interesting. But I pulled a muscle in my back and it's been hurting like hell for sevreal days. Its the upper back right under my left shoulder blade. Does anyone have an good remedies?

it would be rude to say narcotics....

how did you pull it -- have you tried to get it massaged...

seriously -- can you see a doctor and get some muscle relaxers to work through the discomfort?

I have no idea how I pull it. I'm wondering if I did it during the night without realizing it??

I haven't seen a doctor yet. Thats probably what I should do first isn't it.

if advil/motrin or other OTC stuff doesn;t work, you should go to the doc....

he/she may not be able to do much, but if needed a prescription may help

I've found yoga helps- look up excercises for upper back pain.

Avoid dairy as lactic acid impedes healing. Lots 'o' protein, especially fish and almonds. Acupuncture.

and opiates.

noooo...opiates bad. at least for me. I get really really sick. So make sure that you aren't opiate sensative...Naproxen is good for muscles.
& the Ben-Gay Pain patch is good, too...

It's hot and it's monotonous. I want my glasses.

alternate between an ice pack and a heating pad. Hot for an hour, cold for an hour etc. *Gently* stretch the muscle by moving your arm around. Key word GENTLY. You don't want to make it worse. If that doesn't help then go to a doctor. Hope you feel better soon

Here in this cold white room tied up to these machines, it's hard to imagine life as it used to be. Laughing, screaming, tumbling queen... Like the most amazing light show you've ever seen. Whirling, swirling, never blue... How could you go and die? What a selfish thing to do... RIP Jason

Go to the doctor and ask for a Medrol Dosepak - it's a six day regimen of Prednisone (steroids) and I swear, it cures everything! You take six tablets the first day, five the next day, four the next, etc. It shocks your system and then gradually weans you off the medicine.
