WTF Happened to my Shoulder?

[Rottenrogue]

Lame I’m sorry I guess at least you can still lift around it. Shoulders suck. Mine have become kinda bitchy over the years. I’ve torn something in one and didn’t have medical so went to a pt college and they worked around it. Oddly I could still overhead press but couldn’t pick up a jug of milk

NO! ... you just got back here recently RR. A lot of discussions about joints, injuries, solutions, surgeries, shitdoctors and better doctors has happened since you got gone. Your sport suggests you "do a search," this thread a/o others.

understood about medical insurance, but plz avail yourself of all medical a/o info knowledge you might find here or anywhere b4 you just decide to live "around it."

Update: Met with my shoulder doc today. Full tear in RC on my left shoulder. Dang.
He put in some cortisone and i'll likely look to have the surgery next year. Just lift on it/adjust my workouts this year.

That sucks! Sorry!

lol that was a few years ago and that’s what I did. I would never suggest that to anyone

I was going to say, let me know what you find, but see you've already gotten the results. Both of my shoulders ache, horribly, deep inside the muscle/joint area. Massage, chiro, nothing helps, they just ache. I've had a full tear in one already, but it doesn't feel like that did.

A friendly reminder for all of us that have shoulder issues. Adapt to sleeping on your back most of the night. Get a big wedge to sleep on if that helps you (a must for post op shoulder surgery). After all my shoulder and knee surgeries along with a ruptured groin I adapted and sleep like a mummy all night. LOL

partimer, that's what i thought too lol. I've been through this before, it did not feel like my other one LOL.
But here we are, another RC tear.

Matter of fact, update:
I been going to an orthopedic doc for my knee. Getting some knee injections. So out of curiosity, i gave him the images today to see what he thought. He comes in and says "that's quite a tear...." LOL. He said the same thing my shoulder doc said, so that was good to know that the diagnosis was the same from both docs. He said that it is a very bad tear. That if it tears completely, that it would be hard to repair. But what i don't know is hard in what way....like harder on the surgeon? harder recovery? what is hard specifically?
I was thinking of having the surgery next year. Was tryin to skate by this year, but now i'm not so sure. Told my dad i should have it early nov, then that way i get outta holiday duties for the year lol.
