I get horrible knots in my back. Some in where the shoulders and neck meet, but the worst are between the spine and my shoulder blades. I get them massaged out when they get really bad, but they always seem to come back. Is there a way to avoid getting them or at least keep them from getting so big and painful? I stretch before and after swimming, and usually at random times during the day, but they still manage to form. I hope that as my fitness level increases, the knot formation will decrease. Any ideas? :help:
Thanks in advance!

Kyra,
I know absolutely nothing about "knots" so my reply won't help you. I just wanted you to know that you have my sympathy on having something trouble you this greatly. I have many repaired-injuries and get all kinds of uncomfortable things to happen, so I can truly appreciate how uncomfortable you must be.
Has a coach or physical therapist given you any thoughts on this? Do you think this is due to technique or just over-use? I sure wish I could be of help here, but I am clueless.
