Answers:
If its the rotator cuff then it will hurt really bad when u pivot your arm rather than just raising it up & down or straight out & Up/down!. Torn rotator cuff will only heal with surgery, if just pulled muscles or tendors then they will heal in a few weeks if u take it easy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
