R Shoulder, Shoulder Pain

2008-03-21 – 2008-05-12

Grade: 3

This injury started in March 08 in Saba. I think it was the result of continually throwing a backpack over my right shoulder which pinched a nerve (?) or similar. At its worst, it is VeryVery achy and wakes me at night. My arm couldn't be raised for about 10 days. Injury hurt worst when lying down (!) and I often had to sit on side of bed to relieve pain. None of the Discomfort Levels seem to apply. 5 weeks later: shoulder is better but occasionally acts up makes for a very uncomfy situation. Doesn't seem to bother my swimming or biking, but i get twinges while running.

Time cures all.
