About Surgery

My grandfather fell from the roof. His spine is fractured, and both his arm and leg are also broken. He has stitches near his eye. One of his kidneys has been completely damaged.

Rotator cuff strain shoulder impingement

28-year-old male with right shoulder pain after a forceful volleyball serve 1.5 months ago. Symptoms initially improved after I stopped playing sports but flared up again 7–8 days ago. Orthopedic examination diagnosed rotator cuff strain with a positive impingement test. Current symptoms include burning/crawling sensation around the right shoulder blade, occasional tingling, and stiffness around the right shoulder and upper trapezius region. A neurologist documented a right shoulder injury and referred me back to orthopedics. I have not had an MRI or started physiotherapy yet. Given the burning/tingling symptoms, I'm unsure whether I should continue orthopedic treatment or whether this could be a neurological issue.
