Bad shoulder pain, in the morning
 

Hi,

As of lately i have been waking up with a really bad burning shoulder pains, I usually sleep flat on back so i dont know what could be causing it.

Its a real bad burning pain in the left shoulder kinda feels like someone has a knife and stabbing me in the shoulder and holding it there its bad.

I dont think this is shoudler inpingment pain it feels alot more like nerve pain.

Can anyone help me and tell me what this could be? Who else has expeirnced the same?

Has anyone found what movements or excersizes cause this ? I have been doing alot of ROM excersizes and i have been starting to the scott Sonnons Intu flow program. Could this be causing flare ups?

Hello there,

I just sent you a PM...

I don't think this is impingement pain. I think it's nerve pain.

I think you should back off on the gym and let things settle a bit. Clearly, some of the movements are irritating the situation and causing some inflamation. I think the key right now is listening to your body and essentially starting over so you can determine what helps vs. what hurts.

i dont get stabbing pains but i wake up with burning no matter HOW i sleep

i would definitely try to calm down your nerves in your back/shoulders with a tens unit or something like that, if you have kyphosis your spine might be super tight. when im burning a lot i can't do anything, minimal stretching zero strengthening anything like that or your nerves will hate you even more

I dont have kyphosis or anything like that .

I have heard thoroughly massaging the inside of the armpit can help . is this true ?
