A member asked:
What are these knots in my shoulder that move?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is hard to say: Given the info provided, i'm not sure what you are referring to. My best guess is that you are feeling your greater and lesser tuberosity, two boney prominences on the proximal humerus to which the rotator cuff tendons attach.
