A member asked:
I lay arm on flat surface and with 2 or 3 pds weight do wrist curls for 2 min. would this cause shoulder pain? pain when i lift whole arm crosswise
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: We use the cross arm test for diagnosis. This is a sign of an old injury that has partially torn the shoulder joint capsule. An MRI is diagnostic and the Rx is arthroscopic repair. Good luck!
