A member asked:
I crashed my bicycle about a month ago going 30mph and got ejected. i landed straight on top of my left shoulder. got xrayed no fractures. i get the most pain and stiffness when reaching across my chest or lifting with my arm extended?

I suspect rotator cuff damage which wouldn't show on a plain xray. If your symptoms have shown no gradual improvement in discomfort or range of shoulder motions,if you are unable to sleep on your left side because of pain, I recommend consulting an orthopedic surgeon with expertise in shoulder problems for evaluation and treatment advice. An MRI will probably be ordered.
