How come my shoulders feels heavy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heavy shoulders: Without more info and an exam, it's hard to say. We think of neck pathology - especially if it's one sided. Muscle spasms, tension, and poor posture also come to mind. If you're having heaviness or tiredness in other body parts too, you can get checked for anemia, thyroid, etc. Just some thoughts. Best of luck!
