What kind of casts are good for a sprained shoulder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diagnosis Please: If you just hurt your shoulder and are planning on taking it easy for a while, a short period of rest (simple arm sling) followed by gentle supine motion restoration and pendulum may be best. If you have had symptoms for some time, see a shoulder specialist to establish a firm diagnosis and get the best treatment course.
