Shoulder Problems..

[bleys]

after a little research it sounds like I have bursitis in my shoulder.. the only pain I feel is in the act of throwing. I'm not all too concerned if it's just inflammation. My concern is when I move my arm as if I'm throwing (without a football), there is a popping sensation at the same spot when it moves forward and when I move it back to an upright position..

I know a few people have had issues with their shoulder and it's always safe to refer to the huddle for medical advice than an actual doctor...

Get a MRI.

I have the same problem. I bitch but do nothing about it. Don't wanna be told I need physical therapy bc insurance doesn't cover much of that..

I'm having issues when I move a certain way. Haven't been to a doctor and don't plan to unless it lasts much longer.

suppose it depends on your coverage and bills etc. As a Canadian with free healthcare, hell ya, I'd see my doctor and go from there...MRI sounds like a great idea.

My surgeon said popping without pain is no problem ... I had some bursitis too, but part of my problem was my collarbones are too long. When they fixed my rotattor cuff they shaved the end of my collarbone off to prevent further impingement.

Rest it... ice it... and if it doesn't get better go talk to an orthopedic Doc.

you spelt pooping wrong

[bleys]

you spelt pooping on the canadian healthcare system wrong..

:cool:

thanks fellas, and Lifey I'll get it checked out if it's serious.. I'm pretty sure the popping is just a muscle getting pinched.. I thought maybe Biscuit or someone had experienced this before.. if it doesn't go away I'll have to get it checked..

Sounds like you should give that shoulder/hand a rest, and start masterbating with the other arm... I bet your problem will suddenly be cured.

I threw my arm out playing softball. I gave it a rest for 1 full week. I then threw 5 balls one day, 10 the next and so on. I was back with a healthy arm by the end of week two. If that doesn't work you need surgery.

I threw my arm out playing softball.

How does one throw their arm out while throwing a softball?

How does one throw their arm out while throwing a softball?

They throw a softball too many times and the arm goes out.
