Raises hand (hah). Yep, Kristin. Walking to the parking lot after yoga a few years back, I stepped off the curb wrong and ended up straining my rotator cuff. Did pt for a bit, which helped a lot. It sucked.
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

does anyone here have rotator cuff injury experience?
My aunt just had rotator cuff surgery this week! I know she had her injury for a while, like a month or so, before she had the surgery. She kept thinking it was just a pulled muscle and it would work itself out.
I'm sorry I don't have any real useful information. I know it must be painful!

Poor Kristin! I have no advice, but much sympathy.
Someone make me go to bed. Desperate Housewives is just too damned addictive.

Anti-inflammatories and resting it. Wish I could offer more. I did some stretching, but not at first - so chiro is probably the best step for now. Just getting from here to there.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Yeah, I'd say the same thing. Advil, and rest it. Try to find a way to sit (maybe propped up with some pillows) so that it hurts as little as possible.

Sorry, Kristin. Don't throw fastballs for a couple weeks? (It's a common injury in baseball.)

Whee! Thanks!
Oi! Why am I still up?! (aside from the flattery feedback) I have to get up early and go to the dingdang polls tomorrow.

My mother did not appreciate it when I responded to her rotator cuff injury by saying, "This could end your pitching career." Physical therapy helped her a lot.
