Yeah, Thump, don't do anything that will cause severe vibration or extreme motion to the shoulder. Just aggravates the heck out of it. Can you take antiinflammatories. Sounds like you may need surgery eventually to fix it.

Hope you feel better soon.

I am surprised the doc didn't put your arm in a sling and tell you to take it easy after the shot. I have had 3 in each shoulder for bursitis, they help, but have to go easy on them for a couple days after the shots.

I am sure your football playing has beat up your poor body quite a bit.

Feel better soon, take care.

Doc should have told you not to do anything strenuous for a few days......you might have done more damage to it......

Take it easy and enjoy the painkillers. flowers

Then I am a moron as well! drinker Don't have a torn rotator but was breaking up concrete with a jackhammer and tendonitis in my shoulder yesterday. I could hardly lift the toothbrush this morning.tears Wasn't it fun when the doc stuck the needle in and said "tell me when it hurts the worst"? noway My steroid shot worked for three days.

No, that should do it, just make sure it is at least four feet long.......He's got a long reach.
