O/T SHOULDER PAIN

[Marmot]

for the past three months my left shoulder has been killing me,i keep waiting for it to go away but it seems like it's getting worse. i already own a lifetime crossbow permit for my back problems and now my shoulder is draggin me down. it is a constant burning toothache type of pain that is making me miserable 24-7. i am posting this cause i'm sure some of you guys have shoulder injuries and i'm looking for someone who knows what i'm talkin about. i haven't been to a doctor yet, but i'll be going here real soon. thanx--------STEEL

As one who has undergone shoulder surgery, your symptoms sound like you have managed to tear your rotator cuff. If you can make it feel better by rubbing your front deltoid muscle (i.e., the front of your shoulder) with your index finger, you most definitely have a tear in your supraspinatus tendon. I had a perforated supraspinatus tendon as well as scar tissue and a bone spur that required arthroscopic subacromial decompression in addition to open surgery to fix the rotator cuff.
