I tore my rotator cuff in my right shoulder and partially dislocated it 7 years ago while inner tubing down a ski hill. It healed fairly quickly, and despite a bit of scar tissue you can feel around the point of my shoulder, I have never had a problem with it since aside from some clicking noises when reaching behind me (like to scratch my back.)
Until Sunday, that is. After my most ill-fated hare scramble attempt ever, it has been stiff and sore. It feels like it wants to pop but won’t (and I’m not going to force it!) I do not remember landing on it since I crashed too many times to remember any particular one.
Does anyone know anything about shoulder injuries? Should I have surgery :eek: or is it something I can build back up with weights and rubber bands? Is it the type of injury you baby until it feels better or should I really hammer at it to strengthen? I have not had a doctor look at it since I do not have health insurance. (Don’t lecture, it’s in the works!) Just curious if anyone has had a similar injury and what they did.
