I strained my rotator cuff a couple years ago. Mentioned it to my chiropractor, he said "Oh yeah, I can help with that." I'll be danged but he was right. He made an adjustment and gave me a stretch for it and about 2 weeks later it was back to normal.He said that many rotator cuff tears were the result of people ignoring a strain, the muscle woudl weaken and then tear later. The strain I had sure hurt, a tear must be miserable. -Curt

I had a similar issue with my left shoulder that my PA said was an inflammation of the “capsule” around the joint. After an injection and round of oral steroids it was a lot better, and in less than maybe six months or so I’ve regained mobility that I had lost. -D > On Jan 10, 2022, at 8:58 AM, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > Already did that, did not help. > > Sent from my iPhone > >> On Jan 10, 2022, at 9:30 AM, Allan Streib via Mercedes >> <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: >> >> Might also ask if physical therapy could help, though I would assume they >> would have referred you if it could. >> >> I have a sore left shoulder that has *slowly* improved over the last two >> years through range of motion and strength exercises.
