Default Well--

--problems in the cervical spine can cause pain between the shoulder blades, often along the scapular ridges, as well as in the neck and down the arms into the hands.

The pain can be "regular" nociceptive pain, of more neurologic in character, meaning burning, tingling, shocking, lancingm shooting . . .depending on the extent of nerve compression, numbness may be involved too, and even motor symptoms.

You do have MRI evidence of not only some spinal cord compression, but of nerve root compression in the foramen, which are the spaces through which nerve roots pass on their way from the spinal cord to other areas of the body.

What type of neurological issue are you referring to? I ask as spine problems are ultimately neurologic issues--the biomechanical issues put pressure on nerves.
