Treating Your Shoulder, Elbow & Wrist Pain
Addressing the pain early on is the best way to prevent an issue from becoming chronic. Turning to medication and braces for pain management is not a long-term solution and will only push off the inevitable truth — that you need to find a solution for the problem that is causing you pain. The most effective way to overcome these injuries is through physical therapy. Working with the clinicians at Shoreline PT will provide you with information you need to understand which movements cause your pain and which movements can improve your pain and function. Typically, a combination of stretching and strengthening exercises will be used to treat your condition, all of which can be done in the comfort of your own home. Don’t assume that pain in your shoulders, elbows and wrists will go away on its own. It is more common for the pain to worsen, and compensating for the pain by overusing the opposite arm can cause further injury to develop. For support with learning how to manage the pain, and to learn exercises and techniques that can help you overcome the injury and restore proper strength and functionality to your shoulder, elbow and wrists, contact Shoreline Physical Therapy.
