Happy New year to all,
Just wondering about peoples experiences of shoulder injuries. I am a kayaker and I'm having a spot of bother at the moment. Havent been on the water since early october and have been more or less totally inactive since then which is driving me potty.
Begun with very infrequent pain in my upper arm, never really bothered me. Couple of months later I woke one night after a weekend of kayaking with a pain from my shoulder to my hand.
Was referred to a physio by a company doctor who treated me but made no real difference. Have seen a chripractor lately and hasnt done a whole lot for me either. Basically the pain down the arm and around the back of my shoulder blade remains on and off but with absolutely no movement restriction. Have developed more back pain and pain down into leg now but am convinved this is due to inactivity more than anything else.
Yesterday I finally saw my own doctor rather than the useless company doctor. He as said that it appears to him that I may have sprained/strained my AC joint and it hasnt healed, he gave me a Steriod injection to try and fix it.
Anyway apologies for the long winded message just wondering have people had similar injuries?
