After visiting the doctor, I was told I should rest, and take anti-inflammatory drugs to reduce swelling and numb my body to the pain. I thought that would work well, and for a few weeks it did. However, as soon as I stopped taking the drugs, the pain came right back.
The shoulder pain came back because I hadn't treated the cause and source of the pain. I'd just covered it up with pain blocking pills. If you don't cure the cause of the pain, the pain (which is a symptom of the cause) will persist. Treating the source is absolutely essential to stopping shoulder pain.
After much research, I discovered that physiotherapy is an excellent and effective treatment for shoulder pain. Unfortunately, I couldn't afford a professional, since they can charge as much as $100 per hour, and pretty much every shoulder injury is going to require at least 5-10 hours of treatment over the course of a few weeks.
So instead, I learned how to use physiotherapy myself. That might sound complicated, but it's actually very easy. A few simple stretches and exercises at home. After putting them into practice for a few weeks, my shoulder pain had completely disappeared, and I could get back to normal life.
So that's my number one top tip, as a previous shoulder pain sufferer - learn about physiotherapy you can do on your own in your own home. It only takes a few minutes a day, doesn't require any special equipment and is easy to do. And best of all, it's very effective at treating shoulder pain.
I wrote a book about how to cure shoulder pain with home physiotherapy, based on my experiences. I included everything I learned about the special stretches and exercises I'd uncovered during my extensive research.
