Most definitely!. I myself am a year round swimmer, and have torn my subscapularis, had I not said anything, I could have done irreparable damage, and ended my swimming career, as well as perhaps further prevention of every day activities later in life!. Tell a doctor!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

i actually did the same thing! for basketball season, i just wore an oversized knee brace over my hamstring (thigh area)!. it helped a lot and kept circulation!. I'm sure you could tell a doctor and get a more professional brace for your problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
