Simple Shoulder Pain Exercises Can Heal a Rotator Cuff Problem

I tore my rotator cuff about twelve months ago and since then have managed to find out a great deal about rotator cuff injuries and how simple shoulder pain exercises can do a lot to help sort them out. Unfortunately I found out too late to help myself but am happy for others to learn from my mistakes.

I was helping a friend build a wodden garage when a gust of wind caught one of the sides. I instinctively reached out to grab it and felt a pop in my shoulder as the panel was snatched away from me by its own weight. It hurt at the time but I thought that I had just pulled a muscle. What I had actually managed to do was tear one of the tendons in my shoulder.

The following day I woke up with a stiff shoulder. It hurt when I tried lifting my arm out to the front or side and if I reached behind me but every other movement was okay so I took some pain killers and ignored it. That was my first mistake.

I had torn my supraspinatus which is one of the tendons in the rotator cuff. Because it was damaged it had become inflamed. The supraspinatus runs through a channel of bone at the top of the shoulder blade where it attached to the collar bone. Because it was inflamed it was getting pinched in this channel of bone whenever I raised my arm. This was the pain that I was feeling.

By carrying on regardless, I was gradually fraying the tendon more with each movement. The damage was getting worse and so were my symptoms. By the end of the second or third week my shoulder had stopped working. My occasional pain had turned into a constant ache, my shoulder and arm had become weaker with each passing day.

I made an appointment at the doctor’s who sent me to a shoulder specialist. He tried various conservative treatments before deciding that surgery was needed to solve the problem. The surgery was a great success. The surgeon shaved away a small piece of bone to free up the tendon. Once I had recovered from the surgery I started a therapy programme to get my shoulder back to full strength.

I have been lucky. Had I continued to use my shoulder I could have damaged myself really badly, ending up with a full thickness rotator cuff tear which would have greatly reduced my chances of a successful outcome. As it was the whole process from start to finish has taken up nearly a whole year.

Interestingly, had I simply rested my shoulder at the start and gone to the doctor straight away I could have spared myself a great deal of pain and inconvenience and saved a lot of time. The exact same exercises that I used after surgery could have stopped me from needing surgery in the first place. All I needed to do was to rest my arm, treat the inflammation and then once the pain had subsided I could have started exercises to strengthen my shoulder.

Job done! So learn from my mistake. Take your shoulders seriously and if they hurt for more than two or three days, take them to the doctor.

Back Pain Exercise: Working Through The Pain

Only those who have actually experienced periodic back spasms or chronic back pain understand how debilitating it can be; it makes even the simplest acts like getting in and out of a chair, or bending to tie a shoe intolerably painful. Most of the time, rest seems to be the only answer for a painful back, but there may be instances when some limited movement is advisable.

As soon as you begin experiencing sever back pain call your doctor. Find out how long you should remain immobile with bed rest; there are times when being on bed rest for more than two days can be counter-productive, and may actually slow your recovery

While you back may not be capable of much movement, the rest of you limbs are functional and need to stay active. Having weak legs when your back feels good enough for some exercise is not going to be helpful, and will simply extend the time it takes you to get back to normal. For more info see http://www.backpainreliefhelp.com/Back_Pain_Exercise/ on Back Pain Exercise.

Keep Your Legs Moving

At the very least, make an attempt to stand up each day. There is a danger that, if your legs are idle for long periods of time, the may develop blood clots. Getting back on your feet even briefly will help maintain normal blood circulation in your legs.

One Lower Back Exercise

If you are able to get from your bed onto the floor, then lie stomach-down on the floor and support yourself with you elbows. Push up with your elbows so that your stomach and chest are raised while your hips remain in contact with the floor. Get your stomach and chest raised as far as you can without forcing them, and when you can not longer hold the position, roll over on your back and place a rolled towel or pillow beneath your lower back.

This exercise is designed for people whose problems originate in their lower backs; it is most effective for those whose pain radiates from the center of the back outwards.. If your back pain seems to radiate not from the center but from one side, lie on you stomach as explained above, and place your weight on the hip opposite the painful area of your back. Then continue with pushing you chest and stomach off the floor.

There are things that go without saying when you are incapacitated with back pain: no sudden movements, no lifting, no sitting without good back support–and no driving if you can possibly avoid it. Move as much as you can, and when you can stand up, stand as straight as possible.
