Shoulder Problem

[dantheram]

Thank you for your reply,

With regards to the estimated cause of the pain, how long do you feel the injury will require to heal sufficiently for me to partake in weight lifting again. As i mentioned the only lifts i have problems with are dips and bench press, also anything which places the arm in outstreched perpendicular position to the body, ie lateral raises.

I have started to attempt to do some rotator cuff exercises but the affected arm is still to sharp to do them properly.

In addition to post above ,may I can ask about your posture do you have a forward head posture along with rounded shoulders,weight lifting is yours job or a hobby,if not so what is your job,how do you practice your wight lifting ,
yours pain do u have it at begining then free pain area then back with up to pain area during full range of shoulder abduction[away from you],your dominent hand is....,


try to consult orthpedic physician along with proper physiotherapist,problems with muscules tendons should treated properly from the begining,from the begining,from the begining!

Hi,

I do not have a hunch back nor a forward head posture, i weight lift as a hobby and during the day i do office work.

My pain is elicited when my arm is directly horizontal (aeroplane wing position) to the body during abduction and my dominant hand is the left, the injured one.

Any ideas?

Without evaluating in person I could not say, it may be a problem fascilitated by poor neck posture and Thoracic spine kyphosis. Evaluation is the most significant aspect required.

Hallo,

Yes,I agree with physiotheraist above evaluation is essential to give proper diagnosis to aid in a treatment

Any how,answers to the follwing items obtained by proper orthpedic or physiotherapist could help to clarify the diagnosis:

Evaluation for:
Articular pattern,
End Feel,
contractile resposnes,
Active Vs. passive movement,
stages of arthritis,
