I got in 1 1/2 hours on Monday but have had a lot of pain in the right shoulder since. Pain seems to be in the front of the shoulder, I have heard of shoulder rotorcuff damage, think thats what its called.

Anyone had similiar, any advice or remedial action taken.

feelin it too lately not sure why

let me know how you go and vice versa

MRI scan will tell you everything guy's don't waste your money on the what if,go straight to the Doc and get a referral.

Best 270 you will spend mate it will get straight to the core and then you can work out a treatment plan without any guessing = saving money.

Good luck with it all.

Local physio tells me at our age , well my age , if I wake up in the morning with no aches or pains I have woken up dead .don't know about the rest of you but I wake up every morning very very alive .

Macks right about the scan .Had a busted neck years ago bounced around from doctor to doctor for about 9 month till my left arm was useless , couldn't use it. Had a scan done instant diagnosis , had the chop , problem fixed .
By the chop I mean neck surgery not the dreaded chop .

Not sure why there is no rebate on MRI's, but it's money well spent.

Konnichiwa Simondo son,
Not sure why either and not complaining about the coin although I am curious why no rebates on MRI as I claimed on CT and ultrasound.

Scotty,
One of the girls here calls me "Simon-son". I like it!

On a different note to everyone, here's an example of how life can slap you in the face very quickly...

My mate Rob, he lost both his parents within 2 years. They were both only 65, roughly. His dad went first with a 1 year battle with stomach cancer. His mum went next... I bumped into his mum Marge at the footy at The MCG, and I asked her how she was, and she said she's been having some strong headaches this week. A few days later she's in hospital as they got worse, and she never came out... She actually had a series of small strokes, and then a large stroke... Effectively blocked blood flow to the brain I think... I'm no doctor though.

My dad's long term partner and soul mate Marion... She was diagnosed with bowel cancer on my Dad's Birthday, and exactly 1 year later, TO THE DAY! She passed away on Dad's Birthday.

If you are unlucky, it can go pear shaped very quickly.

is that why you are back in the 666 room?

wish Jen would pop them in & out more scotty

It might not be related but if you sleep with your should/arms above your head that is very bad. Sadly i do and it causes me untold grief in the shoulders

Its a simple RSI issue or hypertension ( i really can't remember what my doc said it was) But the simple answer is learn to sleep a different way. Which after 40 years that is tough going

I stretch mine all the time through out the day and use it in its full motion alot as well. That and some more shoulder and arm exercises and that has helped.

Could be way of but had 5 mins spare

there has been a guy on coastalwatch doing a series on stretching,quite a few of them are ones that my rehab guy makes me do. worth another a look. also intresting about the sleeping because i think that happens to me alot. this time i hurt trying to unzip my wettie(i get claustrophobic when i cant get it off straight away and freak out and go mental)

funny thing with the wettie I get a bit the same almost turn myself inside out when I cant find the zipper , then quickly look around to make sure no one else saw that

^^^^anytime you can have a stretch do it. it feels good and if its not suss you wont look like a freak or a pervert. my routine goes for about 20 mins every morning,if i dont stick to t im pretty screwed. i usually have the computer on and a cuppa close by. do a stretch and have sip,have a stretch see who is a awake on here,have a stretch and check the cams etc...then go and surf for me now im old its not so much about preventing injury,it is more about maintaining the body to deal with how ****ed up it is by preventive maintenance
