My Arm Doesn’t Move. Is Surgery The Only Option?

2/13/2021

0 Comments

 
I got an interesting call from a nice woman named Lisa. Lisa is in her early 40s and I got permission to share her story. She called me after seeing one of my ads because she was worried about her shoulder. She just couldn’t move it normally. The straw that broke the camel's back was when her husband tossed a water bottle to her and she just couldn’t get her arm to lift high enough or fast enough to catch the bottle. She was so embarrassed when the bottle hit her, not to mention a little hurt. 

Over the phone Lisa told me she had been dealing with her arm just not moving for months assuming eventually it would just work itself out. But after the water bottle incident she realized the wait and see approach wasn’t working. I told Lisa it was good she could move her arm and that it didn’t hurt but without seeing her I could tell her much else. I really had to move her arm and see how her joint felt before I could give her much information.

Do Shoulder Impingements Heal?

8/19/2020

Hi Dr. Molly 
I have a question about my shoulder. I lift weights a few times a week. Recently, I haven’t been able to lift my right shoulder as high as my left shoulder. I wouldn’t say it hurts but it doesn’t feel normal. Google tells me I have a shoulder impingement. Will this heal on its own? I don't remember doing anything to hurt my shoulder, I just don’t want it to get worse.

Constantly popping your neck?

6/14/2020

Why do I feel a constant need to pop my neck?
​The short answer is that you have a stability issue. A woman called me concerned about a constant need to pop her neck. She'd been doing it for years, even though EVERYONE told her it was bad ;). She never worried about it before because after the pop she always felt better. However, a few days before our phone call she popped her neck then suddenly felt a sharp pain shoot down her neck into her shoulder. Then she wasn't able to move her neck to the right without severe pain.

What does this pain mean?

Most people that come to see me are looking for answers about a pain that is stopping them from their favorite activities.  Many people are putting off seeing a Physical Therapist or another medical professional because they are afraid of being told they will need a surgery, or they will simply be given medication then dismissed, or they will be told the pain is just from being old and nothing can resolve the discomfort.

Holy Neck Pain

I woke up yesterday and I could feel the pain in my neck even while I was still laying on my pillow. It felt like I passed out and didn't move all night long. I haven't been about to look to the right in 2 days now. Can you help me? 
This was a patient I had just last week. 

The thing with neck pain is it limits everything. Looking at your computer and even typing  pulls on your neck. Forget about trying to drive. And why is it that if you run into your friends they always call you name causing your head jerks to the painful side? 


I have come up with 3 simple tips to ease your neck pain....
