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!
I get those same knots and have for years. Although I usually don't describe mine as painful (until someone tries to rub them out that is). I think they just come with the territory of working out. I do notice they decrease in intensity as I get in shape but usually return after a big meet. Let me know if you discover a cure.
