Suggest Treatment For Stiff Right Shoulder Inspite Of Having Physiotherapy After Injury

default
Posted on Mon, 9 Jun 2014
Question: Hi!
2 weeks back on Friday, I had fallen from my bike and had minor injuries to both hands. I realised I am not able to move/rotate my right shoulder as freely as I could all 360 degrees. I had physiotherapy sessions for a week, and stopped now.
Though the position is significantly better now, I am not fully relieved. Still not freely able to move at the right shoulder.
Please assist in getting better.

Brief Answer:
I think you should wait for few more days...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Well, ideally I would like to review X-rays if not scan reports before ruling out grievous injuries. But if things are better now, you can continue with the current therapy.

Use hot compresses and pain reliever for additional benefits. I start my patients on mobizox which is paracetamol and chlorzoxazone for few days. Your local doctor will know about it.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.

Regards
