QuestionHello Robert adn thank you in advance from another expert on this site (real estate).
I am living in Cabo san Lucas and believe that I have injured my rotator cuff during my work outs at the gym.
I've not had the chance to go to the US for a proper diagnosis though from talking to anyone with their arm in a sling, I am pretty sure this is what my troubles are.
Should this be the case and it now being about 2 months since the inqury, what is my best direction in healing this?
I am 54, in rather great health says my yearly physical, my weight is average for my height - I do not smoke, drink sparingly, have ceased my gym activities and only speed walk and jog now which I do about 1 - 2 hours a day 5 days a week. I ride my Harley and deep sea fish on a regular basis.
A sling is not practical since I drive clients on a daily basis and down here - you really need two hands on the wheel.
Any suggestions Doc?
Cheers,
Rick
Answergetting the proper diagnosis is the important thing.... have you taken an approp med such as alleve, 2 pills twice a day... can you reach under and back and touch your thumb to your shoulder blade? If not, someoene should look at it... but I can't diagnosis it over the net.
