WHERE IS YOUR SHOULDER, ELBOW, AND WRIST PAIN COMING FROM?
(continued from outside)
• Dull pain that runs alongside your arm.
Continuous poor posture and improper positioning of the shoulders can make your scapula (shoulder blade) much more vulnerable to pain and rotator cuff injuries. Fortunately, Repair Sports Institute can provide you with the treatments you need to bring relief to the shoulder, elbow, and wrist pain you are experiencing. If you have noticed discomfort in your upper extremities, contact us today. Knowing the warning signs: It is natural to experience an occasional ache or pain from overexertion. However, if the pain worsens or becomes chronic, it is best to consult with a physical therapist. Chronic pain can be defined as any pain persisting for longer than three months – if you notice a lingering pain that won’t go away despite your best efforts, we can help. There are some additional symptoms to consider that may also be telling signs that treatment is needed, such as:
• Sudden arm weakness.
If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to contact a physical therapist. We can determine the cause of your pain and help treat it accordingly. Shoulder, elbow, and wrist injuries are especially common as a result of workplace injury and overuse. While it is sometimes possible to take action to prevent an injury from developing, it is especially important to be able to recognize when an injury develops and to understand ways that you can combat that injury by identifying what may have caused the pain to develop in the first place. At Repair Sports Institute , those are two methods that we commonly incorporate into treatment plans for neck pain relief, and we have noticed significant success in them.
• Sharp or stinging pains.
• Uncomfortable “clicking” sounds with movement.
