Shoulders

[Pam]

Thought I'd pick your brains to see if you had any idea what I hurt.

Ok so I hurt my shoulder. I pulled something in the back of my left shoulder just down from the top but it also goes into the back of my upper arm, maybe its more the entire cap of my shoulder?? I think that may be closer. I was lifting something heavy and felt a pull but no pain. It didn't really hurt until I sitting the other day and coughed real hard, yes I hate to admit it but I think I coughed my way to a shoulder injury lol

Here is the weird part. I can do pushups, with zero pain, nothing, no twinge or anything. But stuff like say, pulling up the covers in bed or pulling the string on the blinds hurts it. Just sitting here I feel slight pain when I raise my arm overhead.

Doesn't seem to hurt all the time either. I just can't figure out why I can do pushups pain free but can't pull a blanket up.

Any thoughts???

hey presto !



give them the motion that hurts, and they'll give you some idea of which muscle you have injured.

Thanks fish, I forgot what a great resource they were.

so what did they say?

I didn't find anywhere I could ask someone but did some digging/experimenting and I'm fairly certain it's my Lateral Deltoid. From some other sites I looked at its maybe stage 2. So I'm just going to do some regular rehab and see how it goes.
