neck area, and pain behind right scapula. Pain has been there for almost a year now. Taking ibuprofen 1600-2400 mg. per day. Ibuprofen doesn't help with right scapula pain. Visited a rheumatologist. MRI on lower back and hips indicated a slipped disc and the early signs of osteoporosis, bursitis and tendinitis. I'm 5 foot and weigh 105 lbs. I've already gone thru 12 session of physical therapy, but I'm still in pain. My mobility and movement is better, but not my levels of pain. Stretch exercising 3-4 times per day at
35-45 minutes per session.
