Why does the inside of my shoulder hurt so much when i stretch it behind my back?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shoulder pain : As you stretch the shoulder you are pulling ligaments and muscle tendons. In addition, there is the possibility that you are compressing the internal cartilage on the shoulder joint. Anyone of those structures can be inflamed or have a dysfunction.
