I overdid it a little last week by swimming seven days straight. Usually I swim no more than three or four in a row without a rest day. Anyway, my left shoulder started hurting and I decided to back off.
It got me thinking that it's funny how any kind of shoulder pain really worries us as swimmers. I get little nagging aches and pains all the time and don't get too concerned, but as soon as my shoulder hurts I worry. I'm sure breaststrokers feel the same way about any knee pain.
