Swelling around rotator cuff?!


Question: Swelling around rotator cuff!?
Throughout the past week I have haulted my workouts because I have been getting pain & swelling in the following areas: Left Rib, Under Arm Pit, On top of scalpula, lower edge of scapula!. On the lower edge of my scalpula it's a huge, sore, knot and it hurts like hell!. I'm not sure if this is a rotator cuff injury because I am still flexible it's just that I can not sleep at night because of the pain!. Stretching doesn't work!. Does anyone have an idea what this may be!? When I raise my left shoulder, the insertion between my armpit and ribs is very sensitive, when I or my wife press on it I can feel it on the other side of my body on the scalpula itself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You've strained or over exerted a muscle in this area which in turn pinched a nerve!. The feelings you describe of feeling the pain on the opposing of your body indicate that a nerve is pinched, and the pain and tightness you feel in the indicated area, its sensitivity indicate muscle strain and perhaps muscular spasm in that area, probably due to exercising to heavily before warm ups!. Warm up exercises can prepare the body for further and harder exercise, lack of warm up exercises can result in injury, with the pain not showing up until it's too late!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The rotator cuff is in the shoulder, this is where the biceps and deltoids attach!.
It sounds like you have strained either the rhomboid or sub scapularis, usually done with a pulling motion, ie, starting a power tool like a lawn mower or chain saw etc!.
book an appointment with a remedial therapist to assess the damage!.
good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
