Shoulder Physical Therapy
Derek Said:
how do u treat nerve damage in the shoulder without going to physical therapy?We Answered:
discuss this with your neurologist -treatment depends on the level of damage.Hazel Said:
How do I give myself physical therapy for my shoulder?We Answered:
Yes, good suggestion, get into PT. To recommend exercises to you without examining you would be negligent. There are areas of the shoulder that can have a small fracture, but if you push too aggresively can actually lead to further problems. Once such example would be a fracture of the greater tuberosity...trying to do lateral raises could lead to a rotator cuff tear. Talk to your orthopedist as to whether you have any restrictions...if PT is necessary, one or two sessions may be all you need to show you what you should work on at home.Robert Said:
chiropracter or physical therapy for neck and shoulder pain?We Answered:
That is a good answer above. PTs and DCs do seek to do the same things...first, reduce your pain. Second, to restore normal joint position. It's just how we do it and the philosophies behind it are different.Not all DCs keep you "coming back for life"...it depends on their approach.
One of the reasons I became a therapist is that I love to teach people things...one of the major differences between PT and DC is that there is much more emphasis on teaching the patient how they can help their own condition and how to help themselves if it should ever return. This is usually done by focusing on posture and exercise. Yet, some DCs incorperate this as well.
As a quick summary, a DC is likely to restore normal joint position by performing an adjustment, or manipulating the spine to do so. PT might use a manipulative technique if they are so trained, but we usually opt for exercise and movement to restore the joint to it's normal position since that is something you can do on your own.
If you consider going to a chiropractor, it might be good to ask them their philosophies on these matters.
Nora Said:
Nerve block and physical therapy for frozen shoulder?We Answered:
With the nerve block, you will feel no pain while the arm is manipulated. The process can be a little disconcerting - you will probably hear some of the tissues popping and snapping. After the nerve block wears off, your shoulder will be pretty sore for a day or two, and then the pain will taper off over the next few days.The 2 weeks following the procedure are extremely important. If you follow the instructions such as applying ice, stretching and exercising, your shoulder can become as good as new. If you don't do the stretching and exercising, your shoulder will freeze up again, and it could freeze up even more than before if you don't keep the shoulder moving while it heals.
Ronnie Said:
Shoulder Physical Therapy Excercises?We Answered:
How about fixing the problem?Since you have multiple old injuries at the same site it is going to be a major hassle to fix. Merely strengthening the muscle is not going to allow you to avoid pain and limited use.

Katrina Said:
How long after physical therapy is your shoulder suppose to hurt?We Answered:
If it was the first time you had the Electra pads done maybe that irritated it? I think the best idea would be to call them, speak to your therapist and tell them what kind of pain you are having and get their professional opinion. If they are close go back up there. If they can't help you your original referring physician should.
