How soon after a tear should I be moving my arm around to prevent frozen shoulder?

[Kool]

Hey, what type of wxcerise do I have to do for a shoulder problem that happens when I shoot a basketball, and part of my shoulder feels pain. I can do regular daily activities and even shoulder excerises without pain.

Hello, did ego lift one set yesterday of dumbbell shoulder press and heard a crunchy sound in my left shoulder. Now it hurts pulling back and lifting above head. Sharp pain, not super bad pain but it hurts enough that I would not train shoulder today for an example. Lateral raises are fine.

Hard to judge over internet do you think this pain will go away without any hospital treatment?

What should I avoid doing? Just started a bulk and would like to still gain muscle during rehab period.

Hello doc, I'm an advanced lifter and feel great pain when rowing and doing pull ups. It seems to be located on the front of the shoulder. I'm already well reinforced with lateral raise and rear delt raises so I guess my issue is mainly in the front. Is that correct ? Thank you :)

[Lalramahluna]

Sir can you please help me, i have the same issues you mentioned, i play volleyball and i got injury about a year ago, i cant properly move my arm up and side ways, but with time its getting better but i wanna know what excercise you think are good for me to do to not overstretch my tendons again, its winter now and hurting very much, my therapist says its a minor tear and over stretch of the tendons and i should take break a while and i did, but i think doing right exercise will help a lot, and i was hoping you could suggest some exercise techniques with minor movement but can rebuild the strength of my shoulder muscles

[aayushvishwakarma]

[Alduin]

So what type of exercises should I to help heal it? I play tennis and my serve takes like all of my power to do and I started having shoulder pain like this in my left shoulder about 2 1/2 years ago but I ignored it because I didn’t want to quit. Now however even the slightest movement hurts and I don’t want to have shoulder problems so I’m taking a break. I’m using ice on my shoulder so I’m just missing exercises to help heal my injury

[mattdawg]

I have a near full thickness tear of the supraspinatus in my left shoulder. I’ve had a steroid shot and have been doing physical therapy for two weeks, and my pain level is six between a 6 and 7. My shoulder doc recommends surgical repair, however, the surgeon he referred me to is who administered the shot and has me doing the PT. I have three weeks to go until my follow up appointment, and the shot should be working by now and it isnt. I’m not sure the PT is working either. My shoulders are 50 years old and there doesn’t seem to be any re, if in sight. What do you recommend?

[boss]

Hey. I did that move and at hurted. What should i do ?

[seppecoomans]

Is it normal that my incline dumbell press strenght has gone down like 4 reps? Had injury a week and. And has healed 2 days ago

[sweetcell]

I’m struggling to be able to complete one push up after an injury I suffered last week. I can usually do 50 plus without stopping. Is this likely to be a rotator cuff issue?

[TheDivinian]

Have had shoulder pain for months now, and the test you demonstrated in this video causes immediate pain for me. Can you clarify if the pain correlates to an impingement, or a rotator cuff injury? I know for a fact that I haven't torn anything in my shoulder, and would like to avoid doing that in anyway possible lol. If it is impingement, are there any movements or stretches you would recomend to alieviate the pain? I heard hanging from a bar for up to 3 minutes a day helps.. P.S. The pain I feel is deep in the shoulder, and towards the back of the shoulder (where you referenced in the video)

[raysfildsoyland]

[sasuke]
