What do i do when i have a rotator cuff injury/strain?

Did you ahve an: Mri? If not ask your doc if you should have one so they can see if you have a tear.

Depends: Initial management includes rest, nsaids, maintenance of range of motion. As symptoms improve, progress activities as tolerated. If no improvement or symptoms worsen, consult with shoulder surgeon. Other conservative options include pt or even cortisone injection.Mif still no better, MRI or ultrasound to look for a tear.
