Turkeygirl Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 helpful to myself? lol. Ok, Tuesday when I came in to work, was doing a few things and next thing I know my right shoulder is hurting and if I lift it up it feelsl ike it is cramped/stuck and all this weird stuff. I had lifted one of those big water containers for the water stands in an office so I wondered if that was it. Well it was hurting yesterday and today it was ok if I kept my shoulder in towards my self, but any type of outwards rotation and I had pain and that stuff/scramped/stuck feeling in my shoulder and tip of my shoulder. Well few minutes ago I'm sitting here at the computer and I had my hand on the joint because I think it was swollen. I rotated my shoulder some way and next thing I know POP comes from my shoulder! My shoulder actually feels better now. Before it almost felt like it wasn't quite in the right place or something. For those knowledgable, is i possible I could have slightly had my shoulder subluxated (aka not a full dislocation) and just opped it in? I'm wondering...might ask one of the trainers at college about it...Guess I'll see what it's like tomorrow morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dartonman Posted March 21, 2007 Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Re: Did I just do something.... It is an AC joint separation, and you just popped it back into place.....my wife says if you rotate it backwards over your head is how she gets them back in place at her hospital....my wife suggests STRONGLY not to lift anything over 20 pounds with that arm for up to six weeks for the tendons to repair themselves.....my wife is a RN/Trauma nurse specialist and really good at what she does....take advil for the swelling, and ice the location, but it popped back in which is good, but you should get checked by your doctor..............al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might go see one of the trainers today and ask her to check it out just to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newarcher Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Did I just do something.... There are exercises that PT's give you before trying surgery for RC and minor dislocations using large rubber band things. Google RC exercises and try those.

wtnhunt Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Did I just do something.... Possible that it might have been out of place and you popped it back in inadvertantly Ruth. Have had similar problems before and had the problemed joint pop, and usually feels much better after the pop. Would agree with Al or his wife though that you really should probably get it checked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted March 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: Did I just do something.... Ok, saw the trainer after work. Not the AC joint, she tested that. She thinks maybe I had an anterior subluxation....said I did more than tweaked it. She suggested see a doctor, but when I told my boss, he said the Dr. I was thinking of seeing, not too good, so mom said I should go to the chirporactor because he can test and order and x-ray or something if necessary. so wait and see I guess. Mom will call the chiropractor tomorrow. I don't think it's too major, but being my right shoudler, my shoulder for drawing my bow back..I don't wanna mess around.
