My right shoulder has been bothering me for a week. I’m not 100% sure how this happened, as I awoke last Thursday with the pain. I’ve been icing and hitting the ibuprofen like it’s candy.
The injury itself seems to be located at the top of the shoulder but different arm angles have varying degrees of discomfort. Strangely enough, lifting something doesn’t bother it (although I’m really taking it easy in that department) but extending and stretching is an ouch. If I were to take my right hand and move it to my left shoulder, I would really feel the burn.
I had to cancel softball practice with the guys last Sunday, which is a major bummer. I look forward to it on the weekends. The guys don’t seem to organize without me or my teammate Don (the elder statesmen of the group) and he’s out of town. I mean I also happen to be the guy with the balls and bases so I think need to get someone to step up and be the lead person, while I mend.
Is there a silver lining? Yes, it didn’t happen during a softball season.
