I have been getting pain in my right shoulder when running. After looking at shoulder muscle diagrams, I am almost certain the pain is coming from my rhomboid major on my right side. This pain only comes when running. Never swimming or during work where I am very active physically. On a scale of 1-10 in pain, 10 being the worst pain, this gets up to a 7-8, and can last a few days with sharp pains when twisting. Doesn't come every run, just occasionally. The only other time other than running when I got this pain was years ago when driving a truck snow plowing. The constant movement of my right arm reaching for the passenger seat while turning my head to back up caused the pain.
Anyone else have this issue? Any remedies? I am doing my first ironman this summer and am worried this pain will possibly get me a dnf.
