 Should I delay the cycle due to my shoulder pain?

I'm getting ready to begin my next bulking cycle on the 15th, have all the gear and I'm pumped to go...but tonight in the gym, a nagging shoulder pain came back while benching, wasn't even heavy weight, only 245. I hurt it benching about 3 months ago doing 315. I got a sharp pain deep in my shoulder, seems right where the ball and socket is (sorry for lack of technicality). I took it easy for about 3 weeks and it was occasionally sore when doing any hard pushing lifts or any kind that involve shoulder raises. I ice it and my partner told me to stick two fingers deep in the shoulder and give it a good rubbing, something about scar tissue...sounds like bs, but makes it feel better for about an hour. Anyway, I don't have insurance that would cover a visit like this, in addition it would be like 4 weeks before I could get seen, so no doctor for me. My question is, has anyone experienced anything similiar? I've heard shoulder injuries never go away. Should I continue with the cycle...the deca will lube the ol' joints up nicely I figure and dull that pain I don't wanna end it hurting it badly though. Any advice? Kain     | ||

Bro, Be on the safe side and go see your ortho, if it is a tendon or the rotator cuff he'll get you an MRI and diagnos why. Remember to stretch, but before you hit a cycle and pile weight on a possibly damaged joint make certain its not. . .the doctor for you. ------------------ |
