Does this sound like a rotor cuff injury?!
Question: Does this sound like a rotor cuff injury?
my shoulder started to hurt about a month ago and is gradually getting worse. the pain comes from the back of my shoulder and the side. I cant life up my arm straight out because it shifts out to the side, pops and hurts EXTREMELY bad. when it pops, it is heard my all of the people around me and hurts REALLLLLYY bad. my physical therapist said to get and x ray but ive lately had alot of xrays due to a bad knee injury and my parents for some odd reason dont want me to get an xray. does this sound like a rotor cuff injury or something else............?
Answers:
Sounds like you have a torn rotator cuff along with shoulder instability which is why it is popping out. You need to see a orthopedic and get your shoulder examined and get a MRI.
