Avatar f tn My 34 yr old husband has recently (in the last month) started having extreme headaches. He says that the are constant, sharp, pains. The location is from his shoulders up through his neck, continuing to the back of his head (about ear level) and goes around the sides. There's no pain in the top or front of his head. Our Dr. at first said sinus infection and gave 2 rounds of antibiotics. Then he said it was pre-hypertension with his blood pressure running about 135/90 and put him on b.p.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am very worried about my chest, breast, and shoulder pain on the right side. I have a dull pain with heat from my breast chest and back of my shoulder straight across from my breast to back. It gets worst and then it gets better. Above my collarbone is very sensitive. When I massage it the dull uncomfortable pain gets better. I also have a lump on my neck that connects to the spot above the collarbone. I have gone to the Dr.s but she said I have fibrosis. Something about muscles.
1088646 tn?1256949923 Thank you so much for your input!! I forgot to tell you that I have Osteoarthritis just about all over...it has fused the upper part of my spine together. The muscles that are giving me problems are in rolled up knots. I'm pretty sure it's from sitting in front of a computer for 8 hours a day. I know...what a dingy profession!! I have had an MRI and acupuncture. I am woking on my "stretching" exercises but will look up "self massage" techniques.
Avatar f tn There are several stretches you can do. Like the cat stretch. Though what will probably help the most is to go see a chiropractor and masage therapis. No worry most chiropractors no longer do the pop techniques though they still do the best work. Some are even covered by medical care. Feel better soon. I know how much a crazy back pain can just pull you down.
Avatar f tn m curious if others suffer from what seems like a muscle knots in the shoulder blade area. Since I became ill with Lyme, I have noticed trigger points in my back that send weird sensations down my arms. It almost feels like an electrical like sensation that drives me crazy. I have tried going to a chiropractor and am currently trying some physical therapy with massage. Nothing seems to really help.
620923 tn?1452915648 and sometimes it is my shoulder that bothers me so I can not do the stitches...I even had the issue with being able to concentrate on what I am doing.....but it does relax me ....I am going to try to pain a picture next......
Avatar m tn Hi, I have had some severe symptoms over the past year or so which started off as back pain and eventually became chronic hip pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain. I developed major insomnia and am now really sensitive to caffeine and alcohol.
Avatar m tn For quite some time I have had a burning sensation that I get on my back it used to come and go now it last much longer and everyday. Its located around the shoulder blade and literally feels like someone is putting a lighter to my back. It does not feel like internal pain at all.....it feels completely external. It has been getting to be almost unbearable, the pain medication my doctor prescribed me for a different back problem is barely doing anything anymore.
1184961 tn?1292574076 Yes & it does help, only it's expensive. My husband has been unemployed for 2 years so we have to cut back on expenses. I do get the massages when I can though. I wish I could get them on a regular basis. I failed to say that I also havae fibromyalgia so the massages does wonders for that when I can get them regularly. I haev 2 friends who are massage therapists who do give me discounts right now, so I am blessed in that respect. Thanks for reminding me of this.
Avatar n tn I have extreme headaches on the left side of my head along with extreme discomfort and pain in the skull, jaw, neck, shoulders. The left side of my shoulder, neck, face, and even cranium is swollen and has been getting more and more swollen over the years. I do not know if it's a domino effect from the bottom (feet, lower back, or shoulder) to the top (jaw and skull) or from the top to the bottom, or a bunch of separate problems.
Avatar m tn I am 25 years old..Boy...I'm suffering from shoulder pain for last 1.5 months..Doctor prescribed as Frozen Shoulder.. Could you please inform me the reasons for it and the affects it may cause?And the solutions to get rid of it with the approximate time..
Avatar f tn if not, i would highly recommend going to a massage therapist. they do wonders in the shoulder area for this type of injury/condition. i clean houses for a living, so all the repetive motions i make with my arm, i'm usually in pain and have issues with moving my arm properly. since starting massage therapy, i have much better use in my shoulder and arm with minimal, if any, pain. i started out at twice a week (also have other issues in the arm) now i am down to an as needed basis for it.
Avatar f tn I agree about the massage therapy is one the most effective treatments. My shoulder, shoulder blade, muscle knots etc. pain was diagnosed as a "snapping scapula" and thoracic outlet syndrome. I have had this as long as I can remember. 1. The snapping in the shoulder blade is when the scapula does not move smoothly over the back side of the ribs. 2.
Avatar m tn Hi doctor, I went to a massage parlor just a normal massage on the back of my body and the back of my neck. The massage lady press and rub on the back of my body very hard and the back of my neck very hard. She took massage cloth cover my back, then repeat her massage pressing and rubbing my back very hard. later, I looked at the back of my shoulder, there was a bit wound on it, like it has been for quite some time.
Avatar m tn When I fell the metal D-Ring from the harness drove in between my shoulder blades, causing my ribs/sternum to let out a honeycomb like crunch, the belt buckle drove into my lower back and the harness rings hit my mid back. When my head hit the ground the hard hat harness broke. When I was taken to the hospital it was misdiagnosed as a pulled muscle based on clean X-rays, no head scan.
Avatar f tn Yeah if the place is certified and make sure it's meant for prenatal. And always tell the staff you're pregnant. They'll be more gentle & won't apply pressure on your stomach like most regular full body massage will. They'll just concentrate on feet, shoulder & back. You can get a pedi/medi while pregnant. I've done it throughout my pregnancy and I'm 26 weeks now. As long you pick a place That's nicely ventilated.
Avatar f tn NavyChic79, you may very well have locked up a muscle in your back / shoulder blade area. You should schedule a couple of visits with a good pain relief massage therapist (licensed). Look for a neuromuscular massage specialist as they will have the skills / training to help you get this worked out. If left untreated this type of pain get get worse, last longer each time and become more difficult (take longer) to work out. It's much better to jump on it now while it's easier to undo.
Avatar n tn You also need a good sleeve and gauntlet to help keep the swelling down while you travel. They can also show you some manual drainage techniques and some pretty wicked bandaging to get the swelling down.
Avatar n tn Not using your shoulder because it hurts can cause troubles known as frozen shoulder if I remember correctly. If your doctor is injecting you with cortisone that can hurt more for a while before it gets better. I hope you get to feeling better soon!
8594632 tn?1410183693 m a ftm so no but in mii lamaze class I had last week that was one of the techniques to start labor nd calm u during labor
Avatar f tn Not too sure if massage is a good idea but someone I know who was pregnant and received a shoulder massage bleed right after. Not too sure if she had a miscarriage though.
Avatar n tn I did not develop Lymphodema after my cancer treatment but because I was having radiation to the bowel, I was seeing a physio for prevention techniques to stop it happening and if it did happen how to manage it. (I had my pelvic lymph nodes removed during my hysterectomy). If you see your doctor and get him to refer you to a physiotherapist that is experienced in lymphatic drainage massage they will be able to show you and treat you with massage that you can actually do at home.

1710955 tn?1309446473 Ibprophen (sp) doesn't help and some nights it hurts so bad that I can't sleep. I am newly diagnosed and have just started my 3rd week of copaxone. I haven't had my follow up with my neuro yet. It was suppose to be today but I had to reschedule it for 26th. Anyway I would appreciate any thoughts or advice.

Avatar f tn I had rotator cuff repair surgery 6/4. I had shoulder MUA 8/9. My ROM has been decreasing. I went to my surgeon today and he told me to stop PT and get 2 massages a week. I told him I wasn’t working and couldn’t afford that. He said, we’ll see what you can do and come see me in a month. I’ve been in PT altogether since July. I went to PT the day of my MUA and everyday for 2 weeks. It then dropped to 3 times a week. I do my exercises at home daily.
Avatar m tn Another person can do it properly. Professionals can do a better massage. There are 4 types of massage. Two of them can be done by self. One is abdominal prostate massage and the other is anal peripheral prostate massage. Google the above words and if it resonate with you, do it, or discard it. you have not mentioned whether you have done with your fingers your with some device.
