Rickp Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Rotator cuff on right arm is killing me, PT doesn't seem to be working either. I was really hoping to avoid surgery but it's looking it's more and more likely.

I was really hoping to avoid surgery but it's looking it's more and more likely I really didn't want to do it either. I'm having some ups and downs. But only 2 weeks tomorrow and I'm almost back to normal. Just a little stiff, not sure if my quick recovery is normal, but I can already tell my “issue†has been fixed.

Just a little stiff, not sure if my quick recovery is normal, but I can already tell my “issue†has been fixed. Doc, told me I had impingement syndrome and didn't think I had a tear, but the PT and exercises don't seem to be helping. My issues are with raising my arm straight up and “reaching†behind my back...I even have a hard time putting on a belt because of that. Doc has done X-rays, but not MRI....guess that's the next step gaussman1, Rickp and Shankster 3 Quote XR Driver Matrix Ozik 8m3 Black Tie Shaft King F7 3W UST Mamiya Chrome Elements 7F4 Shaft King F7 5W UST Mamiya Chrome Elements 7F4 Shaft King F7 4 Hybrid Graphite Designs Tour AD-HY 95 Shaft PXG 0211 DC 5-PW Mitsubishi MMT 80 Shafts RTX ZIPCORE 50*,54*,58* UST Mamiya Recoil 95 Shafts Metal X Milled #7 with SuperStroke 2.0 grip MTB Twitter: @timldotson Instagram: timldotson Facebook: TimDotson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine was anything out, up or a pulling down motion. I played yesterday, golf swing doesn't seem to hurt that much, but I am stiffer and in more pain today. I've been dealing with this since mid-December, I just woke up one morning with a dull ache in my right shoulder, I thought I had just slept on it wrong. I didn't injury it or anything so I just took ibuprofen and went on with things. It wasn't until about a week later that I decided I might need to check it out.

I messed mine up in August. Tried a few cortisone shots, some home PT. Taking my damn shirt off is how I messed mine up. Quite aggravating. But I initially sprained my rotator cuff. Couldn't move my arm much at all. It went back to “normal†but wasn't right since. Rickp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony@CIC Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I had a chiropractor use it on my back. Not much success but that was about 8 years ago so maybe the equipment has improved.

Shankster Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I've never felt anything quite like this. Very strange sensation that feels like it's right in the middle between the shoulder and elbow.

Peaksy68 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Not an injury, but I'm sick of sinusitis. Been having reasonably constant minor issues with flare ups every 6 weeks or so. Latest attempt to get rid of it is heavy duty antibiotics with a steroid chaser. Hopefully I can get it cleared up.

gaussman1 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Doc, told me I had impingement syndrome and didn't think I had a tear, but the PT and exercises don't seem to be helping. My issues are with raising my arm straight up and “reaching†behind my back...I even have a hard time putting on a belt because of that. Doc has done X-rays, but not MRI....guess that's the next step That was me 100%. Impingement with a bone spur and some labrum tearing. He did a procedure call subacromial decompression, which basically means he cut away part of the bone to allow free movement of the joint. I'm 9 weeks post op right now and still have some soreness and discomfort but back to full range of motion and cleared for golf. I think if the labrum would have been intact I would have had much quicker recovery. Like you, PT, exercises and cortisone did not help at all because the bone spur was rubbing against rotator cuff tendons. Can't really stretch your way out of that.
