I think my left deltoid got sprained. Not severe, since this happened late last week and I've been swimming almost everyday. But it does bother me while I'm doing other things.
Is this a fairly common injury? How long would it take for it to go away? Thank you in advance.
The pain from rotator cuff appearantly occurs more towards the shoulder blades from what I've read so far.
No. The classic "swimmer's shoulder" hurts right in the shoulder, on top and toward the front, which is to say, "inside the deltoids when I raise my arm." Whatever is wrong with your shoulder, it is not going to get better if you just swim through it. Go see a PT who knows about shoulder injuries now if you like to swim.
