PT ON VALENTINE'S DAY

Today was my first day of physical therapy for my shoulder.  I can tell you I am not having a pain-free Valentine's Day.

My physical therapist gave me some maybe good news.  He thinks that maybe I have a small tear or tears in my shoulder but that I probably have something like bursitis or tendonitis in my shoulder.  He seems optimistic that my shoulder will get better without surgery.

He poked and prodded my shoulder.  He pushed and leaned on and massaged my shoulder.  Then he gave me exercises I need to do twice a day.  I will be going to PT once a week for a month.

I am forbidden to lift anything heavy but I need to use my arm and shoulder.

Until tomorrow...
