Soft tissue injury

2017-04-24 05:23:55
I have got soft tissue injury in my right shoulder and upper part of the arm. It has been 2 weeks since I fell resulting numbness in the mentioned area. After I got massage done 2 times the numbness ended causing the pain to come out. It pains a lot in movement of hand. Is it okay to wear a support belt to restrict movement? Will it help the healing process or make my arm/shoulder stiff?

Hi, It's important to know what's​ going on with the shoulder!! Good to rule out any fractures or tears If there's no fracture or severe strain of any muscles or ligaments avoid any drastic movements or lifting weights Do not stop the movement completely because it may lead to stiff and frozen shoulder It's a cycle of pain stiffness pain stiffness ultimately leading to frozen and stiff shoulder. Please seek a Physiotherapist soon
