RIght shoulder problem
Hi there, I'm a 20y old male that is most of the time sedentary. Problem is that for the last month I feel pain in my right shoulder and back, when I cough it feels like a tention in my right shoulder(from the neck to the spine). I think I might develop scoliosis, if that s the case, can I do something to prevent. ( I also sleep only on the belly facing the right side). Thanks for your help.
It can be sue to the nerve compression in the neck region because of which the pain travels down the shoulder and back and the treatment is Physiotherapy . In case of scoliosis, diagnosis is must and can be dine with an x-ray of spine.
Next Steps
Go to a physiotherapist.. A proper examination, diagnosis and treatment is required... Ultrasonic therapy +IFT +Heating therapy +some strengthening as well as stretching exercises will be helpful for sure.
