Can the physiology experts please help explain a shoulder "impingement"?
My frustruated interpretation is that it's not torn, not arthritis, but something ain't quite lined up correctly. I think I jammed it on a sprint finish and a few weeks off have not lessened the pain (arm raised 90 degrees laterally = ouch). Friend therapist says don't start anything remedial until the pain stops. Slowly going postal and gaining weight being out of the water.....
I have an appointment with an orthopedist who has a sports leaning but am interested in other's experiences, too.
Thanks,

Geochuck, Hope springs eternal!! How did you change the motion of Margaret's freestyle motion so that she could avoid pain and swim marathons?
