Hello guys been a while...

Well I haven't visited a physio since I posted this but I have been continuously stretching and doing external rotations, my shoulder has become slightly better, definitely nowhere near fully healed.

Anyway I started looking up Kelly Starrett's mobility exercises and I tried a few of them, one of them is called the rotator cuff smash where you place a hard ball behind your armpit area and rotate your arms internally and externally. like this...




Now when i tried this i was in excruciating pain, the area is extremely tender, forget rotating my arms just placing myself on the ball i felt a lot of pain, I tried the same on my good arm and I feel nothing but on the injured arm I couldn't lean on the ball properly without having my eyeballs pop out.

So this is quite a revelation to me, isn't it the infraspinatus/teres minor area? does this mean i possibly have an infraspinatus injury?

share your thoughts please physios!
