TweetI just suck it up. I prefer the pain over the drowsyness of the pain killers.

Tweetive tried but my shoulder hurts to bad during presses,i have given it more than enough rest and warm up thourghly and properly.it is only to be used on 1 workout a week(chest,shoulders)

TweetIf you mask the pain you are only going to fuck it up more.

If you get a sharp pain in the shoulder when you do a bench press for example you may have injured your rotator cuff and really the only way to fix that is to not do any excercises that hurt for a couple of months, e.g. no benching for 3 months.

I've been there and it SUCKS for sure.

Tweet400-800mg of ibupropfen will do it.... it helped me a lot last year when i had bursitis in my shoulder...

Tweetthanks,

damn havent benched etc for close on three months and its going nowhere,right shoulder just above clavicle furthest away from neck.cant wait any longer getting withdrawel symptoms.

Tweetgood call brother, i dont want to see anyone here on painkillers!!!!!!!!!

800mgs ibuprofen every 6 hours, helps a lot.

good luck bro, my real brother dropped his should to the ground benching(minor dislocation), he iced and ibuprofened it and recovered quickly.

Tweetthanks,

ibuprofen it is then.at least till i get this properly sorted by a doc.

cheers

TweetYou may want to go see an orthopedist or a sports physician and get his advice.

If it is your rotator cuff then masking the pain and doing excercises that stress it can get you into serious trouble. The pain is there for a reason, it's there to tell you that doing certain movements will mess you up. This type of injury recovers extremely slowly and will not recover at all if you don't give the joint the rest it needs to recover.

Knowing the intense pain this can cause I think it will take a strong opiate to mask it and regulars of this forum have experienced up close and personal how badly those can mess up your life.

I feel your pain bro, I had the same injury a few years back and the way I got rid of it was by sticking to legs, abs and cardio for a couple of months.

Tweetnaproxen, or methocaribonal...minor muscle rexlants, they will get you through the workout, but if you have that much pain, especialyy in that area, the doc would be my main priority

Tweeti hear ya,

going to make an app soon for doc but for the best

thanks

Tweetim gonna get flamed for this but midol is one hell of an anti inflammatory, it helped me through 2 shoulder injuries.

Tweetthanks pudgy,

dont know it but will look in to it.dont want to get hooked on anything so will tread lightly

TweetYEAH DUDE DONT TAKE PAIN KILLERS ,SEE A DOC AND GO FROM THERE
