Shoulder Pain - Need Diagnosis Posted: 11-21-04 18:24pm


I crashed my motorcycle this weekend. I don't remember exactly how I hit the ground but i'm experiencing a moderate level of pain (although I have a high tolerance for pain). My range of motion is somewhat limited toward the top, especially when my arm is extended. Also, I have some pain along my should blade. This all leads me to believe I landed on my shoulder in the crash (duh :d). I was wondering if anyone knew how to diagnose the injury without the benefit of a physician. Thanks, jeremy

Withoutthe benefit of a physician?!?!? No such thing!!! My father slipped on some ice last year and fell on his shoulder...I have n idea what the internal prooduct was...But he was having pain extending his arm...As you do.. It turns out that he was just a mm off of needing a plate or some contraption put in! See that doc!! it's the only way...For any motor sportsman...The nly way to keep doing what you love..Is to keep checking in with your doctor.. Please go and see one! At least for an x-ray... Better safe than sorry!
