Hello all!
Im Frank, im 26 and i have recently started swimming. I think i put too much heart in it, and i have ended with an injury in the right shoulder. I tend to breathe by this shoulder in free style.
I have the pain identified in this 2 movements:
1) When i cross my arms in front of me:

The more i try to cross the bad arm, the more it hurts
2)
Extend your arms to the front:

Now, rotate your hands so your thumbs point to the floor.
The more i try to point to the floor, rotating all the arm... it hurts more.
Im taking an antiinflamatory, apllying ice, and using an antiinflamatory ointment over the area.
1 week later, i still feel some pain, and i want advice about it... go to doctor? keep it up?
Pain is really soft except if i force the arm in the 1) and 2) situations, when it really hurts.
Thanks in advance!
see a Dr or Physical therapist. I thought I have should problems, but it turned out it was my subscapularis. the pain was in my shoulder, but it was caused by a weak muscle under my shoulder blade not doing it's job to help the blade down when i was swimming.
