Any ideas on what my shoulder problem could be? (Answers: 4) (Comments: 0)
About a week and a half ago, I hurt my shoulder. I was doing push ups since I will be leaving for basic training in the next few months. Anyway, I didn't realize it while I was doing the push ups but I was doing them incorrectly. The next day when I was doing push ups again, I noticed a dull pain in my right shoulder. It almost feels like it's a tight muscle that I can not stretch out. I have a feeling like it could be a rotary cuff injury, but it doesn't hurt all the time, only when I do push ups. I also didn't lose any strength in that arm. Anyone have any suggestions on what the problem could be and how heal the problem?

Advice on recovering from a rotary cuff injury? (Answers: 2) (Comments: 0)
About 4 weeks I sustained a shoulder injury through weight training. I immeditaley stopped all exercise and started a course of Ibuprofen which did nothing. I then had a couple of physio sessions, where I was informed it was a rotary cuff injury. Due to the cost of physio I can't afford to continue treatment and after a recent visit to my GP I have now been taking NSAID?s for about 4 days. Unfortunately the condition is pretty much still the same as the day after it happened. Sore to the touch, constant dull ache increased with certain movements and waking up a few times every night when I lie on it etc. Just wondering if anyone who has had this injury can shed some light into when I may start to see any improvement? Since taking the NSAID it is definitely stiffer than before, which I don?t know is a good or bad thing? Also, is light stretching on the affected area a good or bad idea? Any info most welcome. I am dying to get back on the weights but can?t see any light at the end of the tunnel at the moment :-(

1 Year old Rotary Cuff Injury? (Answers: 1) (Comments: 0)
It looks like I have a rotary cuff injury. It doesn't hurt that much but I still feel the "Clicking" feeling I get when I lift my arm over my head. I know I should be careful by not stressing it too much because I saw a video that requires you to have surgery if you completely tear it. Can anyone recommend me what to do? Who should I see? I hear doctors see people who have this problem all the time but who else should I see aside from one?
