Hello
I can use some advice please
I was lifting a big 85 pound box and moving it left so that it could fit into some narrow area and right 12 days ago,
I didn't hear a pop, but the next day the left shoulder, where the deltoid meets the upper outer pec almost, felt very Sore.
I can lift the same amount of weight as the right side, in other words there's no muscle weakness
There's no cracking when I move might left shoulder up and down *and the range of motion is good*
After having hurt this area, the next day, about 10 days ago, I still did about 8 to 10 repetitions of incline bench presses and chest cable crossovers and a flat bench press
Today is day 12 and all the info. out there seems to show that shoulder injury like this is really a shoulder discomfort, and should improve in 2 weeks (14 days) and totally heal in 1 month to 1 month and 2 weeks.
(as an aside, im almost 53 so it may take longer for me to heal? than the above )?
I applied a massage gun in the area yesterday and today for 2 minutes ea. session, the suggested time per each muscle group, with the suggested round ball extension
I try to do the inner & outer (no weights) arm moves, normally done for rotator cuff exercises at least 1x per day and a warm almost hot compress.
It's not immediately after an injury, so the 3 day window of using ice right after the injury has passed. In other words, an ice pack to the shoulder is probably too late to apply now.
Question: What area is this?
Is avoiding working out with weights for 8-10 repetitions like I did the day after strongly suggested and should I just do light rep 15 reps like 10 pound dumbell lateral and front delt raises? and maybe outer arm turns and inner arm turns to get the blood flowing to the tendons so that the healing process is quicker?
I woke up today with almost no pain and thought i was cured, but as the day wore on, I did 85 pushups all at once and felt soreness again
So, what do you suggest I do, refrain from any kind of bodybuilding workouts and do light-weight high rep exercises for the next month
(but, I must do my pushups at about 80 to 100 reps every other day, I don't think I can quit that. I simply can't refrain from that, though)
Here are some 2 photos of the area in question X marks the spot
One photo is a shoulder brace that has some copper compression which I purchased recently. I could probably do 9-12 reps of a bodybuilding exercise
or at the minimum 80 to 100 pushups all at once every day?
Thanks in advance for any constructive help
