Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 Been having major shoulder pain for months in both shoulders. I think it is a rotator cuff issue. Can’t even sleep on my side anymore.

Can’t even sleep on my side anymore. Oh, Lordy. I’ve been there on both sides, but never both at once! The CPAP allows me to sleep on my back, but I go between that and my “healthy side” which varies. Try this, it worked for me (regardless of how silly it sounds!): I took a belt from a bathrobe wrapped it around my waist and tied my hand close to my waist. If your hands are allowed to raise during sleep, that is where the trouble starts. Do NOT put your arm under the pillow going above your head. That is DISASTER! I’ll spare you the medical part. I’ve missed 12-18 months of tennis on three occasions, but refused surgery. It WILL get better. Good luck! 1

I’m at the point in life where I would rather just try rehab or PT and play sports through the pain or with limited range.

While on a business trip in India, a friend recommended that I get a Cortisone shot at the major city hospital. The needle was "HOLY SH*T" and the pain lasted for three weeks -- but I've been pain-free since (eight years now). Edited October 30, 2019 by Golden Goat

I may look into this too. the other idea I had was to try a chiropractor— which I have never went to before in my life.

Years later I tried it again. It was Christmas Eve, and they had improved the medicine to the point that there was an immediate pain killer added that worked until the cortisone kicked in. It stopped the pain IMMEDIATELY! Best Christmas present I got that year! It had been hard to sleep because my shoulder was throbbing like a toothache....then it was GONE! Magic! 1

Steve O Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 Right ankle/Right knee/Back/Right Shoulder. All pretty minor today. Left side is fine. Not bad considering 6 years of soccer, 9 years of wrestling, 20+ years of volleyball, 30+ years of golf, and 40+ years of baseball/softball. 1

I went to work and nothing was better. I went to the nurses station and they gave me a heating pad, but that did little. A little while later, I was in so much pain, I could not turn my head. I left work and went to the ER, big mistake, they observed me, but didn't really do much of anything. Gave me some medication for the pain and they seemed to think it was not much of anything. The next morning, my neck was worse. I had never been in so much pain like that before. Back to the ER, they admitted me, took things more seriously. Did an MRI, couldn't find anything, they did very little to take the pain away. The medication did very little to make me comfortable. I eventually went to a chiropractor, and unlike the ER people, he actually looked at my neck. He gave me some exercise methods to do and did some ultrasound therapy, but he admitted that there was little that could be done. That the muscles in my neck were so raw that he did not want to adjust me. His exercises helped me, and in a day or two I was back to normal. I never want to go through that again. I never even knew what I had. Muscle spasms?
row_33 Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 a friend's younger brother would ride one of those red wagons down the 20 step staircase in the house all the time hope he's still alive 45 years later and doing okay

frostbitmic Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 Bottoms of both feet, they hurt with every step I take and have for years now. Half jokingly I've asked my doctor to amputate them, sadly he refuses.
