Could This Be You?

Something else we often see in our Physical Therapy practice is when clients go to the Doctors, and the Doctor tells them to “just rest” or “don’t move it if it hurts”. They give them muscle relaxers or pain pills and “see what happens”.

But this advice is not usually the best and it is common for many of these people to still be in pain several weeks later. Many return to the Doctor who frequently ends up giving them another prescription for even stronger medication, may refer them to a surgeon and instructs to rest LONGER. This isn’t right and explains why so many people are suffering with chronic Shoulder pain.

Could This Have Happened To You?

It can be confusing because you may have heard different things from different people. It could be that you think you have a shoulder problem – but it is actually your neck that’s causing the problem? It can be a tricky part of the body to identify the true cause of the problem, because there are so many contributing parts. This often time results in people putting off deciding what they should do to take care of the problem that is causing their Shoulder Pain. Even worse, there are many people that just end up living with it – thinking that it is just the way it’s going to be.

Does This Sound Familiar?

If You’re Currently Suffering With Shoulder Pain, Here are Some More Reasons Why It Could Be Lasting Longer Than We Would Expect:

1. You keep thinking that it will just go away – but it hasn’t.
2. You saw a Doctor who instructed you to not use it and take some anti-inflammatory – but they did nothing more than dull the Shoulder pain, until they wore off and they pain was the same.
3. Your co-worker, or neighbor, told you that everybody gets Shoulder pain as we get older, so you just need to live with it.
4. You sought out help from another Physical Therapist, Masseuse or other Healthcare Provider, but nothing they have done or recommended has worked.
5. You’ve tried using things like CBD oils, ice packs or electrical stimulation but they’ve not given you any lasting relief from your pain.
6. You took the advice that you should rest when you have severe shoulder pain, but it has not gone away and continues to bother you daily.
7. You decided to have Cryo-therapy or get a massage hoping that would get rid of the pain – it felt good at the time but has not resolved your problem…

If any of these sound like what happened to you – we would love to help you out. I invite you to speak with one of our Shoulder-pain expert Physical Therapist at Focus Physical Therapy in Rancho Santa Margarita. Learn what can be done to help you. If you have tried some of these things and they didn’t work, it may not be a bad thing because by ruling out what doesn’t work – you are closer to finding out what will!

A question that we here all the time is:

“What Can I Do To Get Rid Of MY Shoulder Pain, As Quickly As Possible?”…

So, here are a few things you can do:

1. To start, you need to decide about getting help. Many people put it off way too long, thinking it will just go away if they give it enough time. Months later they are still dealing with it, nothing’s changed or it may have even gotten worse.
2. Do the RIGHT exercises – not all exercises are created equal. The best exercise for Shoulder pain is dependent on what is causing the pain in the first place. Doing the wrong exercise may not help at all – worse yet it may make your Shoulder pain worse. Proper exercises given to you be a Physical Therapist will decrease your pain, improve your mobility and ensure that your pain does not return anytime soon.
3. Minimize sitting or sleeping with bad posture – one of the worst things you can do is to sit for a long period of time with bad posture and little movement. You know how you feel when you first get out of bed in the morning or after sitting at your computer for a long time – you have a hard time moving because you are so stiff and tight. What would be really helpful is if you had the correct strengthening exercises that would help improve your posture and flexibility, combined with hands-on treatment, to get you back to normal as quickly as possible.
4. Get real, “Hands-On” Physical Therapy – Physical Therapy is proven to help people with Shoulder pain and the sooner one gets help the faster they get back to normal, doing the things that matter to you. At Focus Physical Shoulder Pain is one of the most common injuries we see. If shoulder pain is affecting your life, your work, your family time – if it makes you feel less capable or confident – Physical Therapy can help you get back to living life your way, quickly
