Anyway I’ve managed to get past the worst of it by not working my shoulders directly and focusing on bench presses etc. Keeps the strain off of my shoulders but still cause them to ache a bit and it’s been that way for a month or two.
Until a mate of mine gave me some stupidly high strength CBD oil. Wow! The pain has gone, that stuff is magical. Slowly working my shoulders again but no more rotator cuff pain has put me in a right good mood  |
So you're just masking the injury meaning you won't give it chance to heal?
I've had trouble with my right shoulder being painful after leaning on it while weeding my patio a year ago and this rotator cuff pain thing you speak of sounds just like what I have. This limits movement of my arm behind my back and hurts when slept on, it doesn't hurt with normal use, does this sound like a Rotator cuff and should it eventually go away?
