Shoulder pain - how do you manage?
Posted: Mon Nov 16, 2009 6:42 am
Every so often my muscles on right side of my body cramp up. I can't put weight on my bent wrist, my right leg gets very tight and sore, and my right shoulder into my neck cramps up so tightly I can't turn my head or move it properly. It is part of a mild relapse happening at the moment - but it's not affecting my energy too much so I know it will pass.
What do you do to help this?
I've tried massage, heat, extra magnesium and calcium for the last week. No avail. Extra painkillers too but they only work to an extent. I have a Physiotherapist appointment tomorrow - hopeful that she will help because she got movement back in my arm after 10 years of tightness. If I didn't have my little son I'd take a Rivotril tablet, but I find they leave me dangerously tired afterwards for 2 days so I can't do that at the moment.
