How come my shoulder hurts still after my car accident 5 years ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Injuries to a : Joint will cause chronic damage well into the coming years. 5 to 25 years can occur and the injury continues to flare up in these joints. The reason is because inside joints there are almost always very few blood vessels to promote healing, so injuries to any joint, especially the larger ones like hips and knees, are notorious for causing recurrent symptoms and overall worsening over time.
