Physical Therapy for My Shoulder

June 11th, 2008 | Comments Off

My first physical therapy visit today.

I really don’t bend like I’m supposed to. She did her measurements on my right arm’s range of motion, and… surprise, on my left’s when she discovered some limitations there.

I had 10 minutes of heat and then an ultrasound treatment. Then, some exercises to do at home. Twice a day for the next week. Not difficult at all, just very effective at demonstrating what I can’t do with that arm right now.

Oh, Lord. My right shoulder blade is out of position. It seems that the changes in motion caused by the pain have moved it farther right.

No pain so far from the work. I’ll return to PT in a week.
