A member asked:

I am experiencing muscular pain around rotator cuff. this may have been caused through overextending the arm. help. ?

Shoulder pain: You may have partially ruptured the rotator cuff or if overuse is an issue, it may be tendonitis. If you can lift arm fully out to side by the head, then not likely total rotator cuff tear.

Agree with Dr. A: You may watch and wait as waiting is not likely to make it worse. You may take acetaminophen for pain, do not exceed 4 g/day. Have a healthy diet, exercise, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV vaccine Nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.
