My shoulder/neck...

edited December 2009 in General Discussion
It hurts SOOO bad. D: Soo bad.<br>My sister, my mom and myself all tried massaging it and it doesn't work.<br>I sat in a massage chair for 6 minutes today and <span style="font-style:italic">it</span> didn't work.<br>It just kinda makes it worse.<br>What's wrong with my shoulder/neck?<br><br>My mom and I were talking and I was like "Do you think it's from my arm being in that heavy cast for 8 weeks?" She's like "I don't know... Probably." So... yeah.<br><br>Any ideas why this is happening?<br>Any tips?<br>Would a hot water bottle work better than ice or vise versa?<br><br>HELP!<br>It hurts so bad.<br>DD:

  • I've had the base of my neck and my lowerback hurt a lot. With my lower back, I used those packs that get hot and cold. Those felt nice. My muscles in my back would actually spasm and muscle relaxers help. I don't think thats what you have but just what I've experience. With my neck, it helped when I laid down flat on my back for a little and try to align the bones like they should be. Hunching over isn't too good of an idea if you're neck hurts. Maybe you could ask your doctor what you could do to help relieve the pain. Meds may also help.. I never use them even for headaches, but for some people it really helps. Doctor is best though =P

  • You poor thing! I know, I have the bones of an 90 year old man.<br><br>My back and neck almost always kill, I know my neck hurts now. xD What kind of pain is it? If it's stiffness roll your neck around untill you feel something pull/move and that'll relive it. The first time that happend to me I almost freaked, it was an odd/good feeling. ;3<br><br>I wonder why your neck/back hurts. If your anything like me you'll be on VP when your practically in your grave. xD You should really take a rest. Take a nap or something. Sitting in a computer chair isn't the best for your back.<br><br>Feel Better! >;3

It's helping a little.<br>Thanks, I'm probably going to sleep in an half an hour to an hour.<br>I'll make sure I sleep right...laying flat on my back all cozy and tight. (heh, that rhymed. xD) That might of been the problem.

    <br><br>xD Yeah, sometimes I sleep weird and I wake up with zero blood in my arm (I sleep with my head on top of my right arm) and it's all asleep and it kills for the rest of the day. x3 You better take care! Or Shibi will find you. >:3

  • <span style="font-size:92">It could just be a muscle strain, in which case, you should use hot. But it could also be a tendon, in which case hot would make it more inflamed, so cold should be used.<br><br>BUT! If it is from having a cast on, and you just got range of motion back in that arm, it's probably a muscle strain.<br><br>Take whatever you use for a headache and use hot, and if it doesn't help or gets worse, go to a doctor and have them check it out.</span>

  • Go Have a bath if it feels better then hot is good. Which I am pretty sure is whta you need to do, take some advil (or whatever) and relax it by sitting on the couch. Massages can make these things worse, because its like a pinched nerve thing. Also use rub a535
  • Okay, thanks for the help everyone! It stopped hurting like yesterday and I was so happy. xD It's all tight now and it doesn't even hurt. :3<br><br>THANK YOU!
