Ha, i didn't think i was on my own!
Many thanks for all the replies and advice.
Went to see the doctor today, our new doctor, very keen and thorough chap, gave me a very full examination.
It is his diagnosis that i have strained a muscle in the back called a 'rhomboid' and it isn't uncommon for it to take 3 weeks to heal with rest, so perhaps i'm not doing it any favours by not resting, but that is not in my makeup!
So he told me to up the ibuprofen and rest.
If no improvement then go back to him.
So i will see how i get on, back out stalking tomorrow.
Cheers
Richard
Be careful and take care of your back or you will regret it. I broke mine in two places L1 & L4 along with a number of ribs due to a motorbike accident back in 1994. I've always been a bit protective of my back since and fingers crossed have only had a handful of short term muscular problems since.
Hope you get well soon
