I've went to see my GP after my upper arm really hurting for a month & my arm movements getting more restricted.
My GP sent me for physio who I saw today. He diagnosed me with frozen shoulder. My symptoms are VERY limited arm movements with the most intense awful burning pain in my upper arm muscle towards my armpit. This radiates down my arm and the back my wrist feels numb as if my watch is too tight. At no point though have I had ANY pain in my actual shoulder itself so I was very surprised when the physio said that's what I have.
Sim… é muito comum ter dor que desce pelo braço e alguma dormência ou formigamento. Quando sinto dor real no ombro em si (e depois ela se generaliza), é quando faço qualquer movimento que cria um puxão no ombro. Então imagine tentar separar algo pegajoso… quando finalmente se solta… cuidado! Este verão eu estava descascando milho e isso aconteceu, chorei, me senti enjoada e tive que me sentar no chão porque estava prestes a desmaiar de dor. Agora tenho muito cuidado… até ao abrir um pacote ou correspondência.
Cuide-se e espero que você comece a se sentir melhor logo.
Olá Hayley, parece ser um ombro congelado. Minha dor está na frente do ombro, no bíceps, descendo pelo braço até o cotovelo e também tenho formigamento nos dedos. Além disso, sinto dor até perto do seio.
As alegrias do “ombro congelado”
Infelizmente, não fica apenas no ombro!
Os exercícios da fisioterapia ajudarão, mas leva muito tempo para melhorar…
This sounds all to familiar. My pain was more in my bicep, down my forearm elbow wrist and even fingers but I could not raise my arm without my whole shoulder lifting. I am thankfully out the other side. I had intence pain for months and many sleepless nights, but there is an end to this, I now have around 95% ROM back in my right arm.
É bom ler seu post e receber alguma esperança, Cindy. Ainda estou na fase muito dolorosa. Alguns dias e noites são piores que outros, mas espero que um dia logo não haja mais dor e que eu consiga dormir uma noite inteira!
I had Xiaflex injections done in my FS. Is a protien that only eliminates collagen build up that causes the pain and loss of ROM
After two weeks went back in for manipulation and the had a splint and a couple weeks of therapy. That was 8 months ago and have full range og movement back and no pain.
My experience was identical to ours..but now almost a year since my diagnosis I'm no longer in intense pain but my ROM is still very restricted and I get slight muscular pain feeling on my shoulder now.. Hopefully this FS is working its way out ....
Hi Irene.you probably do not want to hear this because I know it feels like a life time away from where you are now but I think.it was around the 9 month stage when the pain subsided. Movement was still limited but oh the relief was immense.
My Physio says it's partly because some muscles are overworking and getting tired and sore, and partly because of reflected pain.
This week he was pressing on muscles at the back of my shoulder blades, the back of my shoulder blades felt nice, like they were un-knotting, but at the same time I had a horrible ache in my upper arm, he said that's where the pain is reflected to, from that muscle.
I see him once a week. I have a big improvement after seeing him and then the pain builds up again.
I've started having a turmeric drink each morning, magnesium tablet at night, sleeping with my sore arm resting on s pillow and am trying out a better quality pillow. Also doing exercises and trying to stretch.
Hi my symptoms are the same ..... it's so debilitating and feels like there's no end to it! I've seen a chiropractor and have been doing physio. I'm a very active person and not being able to do my yoga and swimming has really got me down ..... I have been given gabopentin pain killers( used for epilepsy)but they don't give any relief and have started to make me itch.sleeping on my back all night is so uncomfortable too Going back to my GP to see what I can do. I am normally a very positive person but really struggling to stay that way with this continual pain
Olá Tracy. Identifico-me com os seus sintomas. Fui diagnosticado inicialmente com ombro congelado em fevereiro de 2017, após experimentar movimentos muito restritos no ombro esquerdo e dor do ombro até o braço. Às vezes, também sentia dor no seio do mesmo lado. Fui encaminhado para um raio-X. O médico então disse que eu tinha desgaste artrítico no ombro. No entanto, parece que tenho dor desde o ombro até o cotovelo e antebraço. Acho difícil vestir-me e dirigir. Não sei se vale a pena voltar a ver o médico de família. Estou tomando naproxeno e co-codamol. Desculpe pela mensagem longa. Só queria saber se você encontrou algum outro tratamento eficaz? Obrigado antecipadamente.
This is how frozen shoulder starts. Get an X-ray to rule out other conditions though. If you don't get pain in your shoulder waking you up at night that's good. I am suffering from my second frozen shoulder😱. Tramadol didn't work last year, nothing did! This year I am on Naproxen, a friend used it for her frozen shoulder. I learnt a lot last year, so as soon as I felt the pain at night in my shoulder went to the doc. I also organised an early steroid injection. This is not pleasant but the pain I endured last year was beyond description. More and longer lasting than child birth! I set up a Pinterest board to help others. Do not put any heat on your shoulder, just frozen peas! Get a chiropractor too!
Olá, eu fiz 2 injeções de cortisona na articulação e 1 hidrodilatação (cortisona com 50ml de salina, que deveria “abrir” o ombro congelado). Elas só funcionaram temporariamente e acabei de fazer uma segunda cirurgia no meu ombro para limpar os danos (novamente), e o especialista espera que isso resolva. Geralmente as injeções funcionam para a maioria das pessoas, só que não para mim
Espero que o seu esteja melhorando!
