Yes, depending how much pain you are in and if its affecting your daily life
Yes absolutely. If the nerve is irritated then it is only going to get worse with time. Jay H Schwartz, DC, DIBCN, DIBE
Shoulder impingement is the lack of strength in the muscle. We can work on building that strength with exercises and also soft tissue therapy. After a couple of weeks building and restoring the muscle.
Hello, Yes, it does, impingement is not a normal process in the body and if untreated your shoulder and surrounding areas will become more restricted. Sincerely, Dr. Churchill
Yes, most definitely. Look for a practitioner who does Active Release Technique on ActiveRelease.com
Yes it does! Especially before it creates numbness and tingling down your arm into your fingers. Thank you for your time! Dr. Kortni Smith Owner IMS Chiropractic Clinics (760) 285-3824 [cid:f23a7d4c-6831-4207-b97a-ea2f09b1d0d8]
I would say yes, because that is not normal for the shoulder. You have a variety of different approaches, chiropractic care, acupuncture, and physical therapy, depending on what is causing the impingement. Dr. Kurt
