Hi physiobob,
So I am starting to think that you are a bit of a genius because a few days ago I started getting referred pain down my right hand (fourth finger and pinky). My physio thinks that I have irritated the ulnar nerve and the infraspin ... he mentioned sth along the lines that infraspin can cause pain which mimics nerve pain but instead I have done both. He cpouldn't explain why it happened which is fine, I have a complex injury which no one can diagnose only how it happens. Can you point me in the direction of some literature which I can look at? and also how long does it take to settle? i've had this for almost a wk and i can't take anti inflams anymore.

I have also now concluded after piecing it altogether that I think it is a nerve issue which is causing the muscle spasms (levator scap, supraspin) and would appreciate your advice in terms of what I need to look ( you mentioned to look at the dorsal scap nerve and rhomboids which I've asked my physio to look at) and what to ask as I am seeing my sports dr next wk. It seems to me I need a strategy for when it flares and to continue strengthening my scap muscles and RCs.

Advice greatly appreciated.
