Only you and your primary doctor can figure out whats the best for you.  Check with them first.  Ask them to send you for the appropriate tests to find out what exactly the cause of your pain is.  X-rays, MRI, CAT scan, ultra sound are all good in finding the culprit to your pain. \n\nYour primary may set you up with a regimine to try at home.  Ice and heat alternately to reduce external swelling if that's present.  Anti-inflamatory medicines to reduce internal swelling.  Excercises to stimulate the blood flow to the area so you're not stiff.  \n\nFrom there, they would be best to determine what further care you may need/want and which specialist would be best to go with.

You need to go straight to a chiropractor. Surgery should only be if your back goes out on you. A good chiropractor that I know of is Dr. David Darrow. You can check out more about him by visiting his website http://www.darrowtotalcare.com

There are two possible causes for the sore to occur at your right \nshoulder blade area. \nThe first cause is due to the heavy load which you carry on your\nright shoulder which has strained or injured the muscles;\nThe second could be a 'pinched nerve' which runs from the\nneck to shoulder to arm and hand. This nerve which is 'trapped'\ncould cause extreme pain to the shoulder.\nIn any case, it's best you seek a doctor who is a neurologist physician - he's the right person to help you.

I only have anecdotal evidence. I've been treated with accupuncture for back & shoulder pain, and for a persistent numbness in my thigh. It has done absolutely nothing for me and, although single treatments are usually not very expensive, the costs can add up over time. \n\nWith respect to the thigh problem: I described it to several accupuncturists, who then treated me by sticking needles in various places. Nothing. The numbness never went away. I went to a Western MD who suggested that I stretch my leg a certain way and exercise it. That works. The numbness comes back, but the only person who treated me honestly, forthrightly, and with real attention to the condition was a regular old doctor.\n\nIf you're susceptible to suggestion and psychological manipulation, have lots of money, and want to get really anxious about someone sticking needles in you (though I admit, the pain is USUALLY slight or nonexistant), then I'd try it. If you want to get better, I'd go to an MD.

As a 28 year old young woman with scoliosis I have a lot of experience with back pain. The fact that the pain is radiating down to your thigh makes me think it is related to you sciatic nerve. What I have found the most helpful is yoga and pilates. The controlled movements of yoga not only strengthen your back and abdominal muscles but they also provide flexibility and stretching to the core muscles that have a huge influence on spine health. I am looking for a yoga class right now for this very reason. After physicians keep telling me to simply take ibuprofen/aleve/etc... It can get very frustrating. Especially when none of those drugs can touch the pain! I wish you the best!

Invest in a Homedics massager (model PA-1). It's a very good deep tissue massager, the only one on the market I have found to actually be therapeutic. You can pick one up at your local wal-mart or target. I got mine when they first came out and it cost around 40 or 50 dollars. Might be less now. You could be having tension in your shoulders. Everyone deals with stress differently. Mine goes to my neck and shoulders too and sometimes my back. As far as medicine, there isn't really anything you can take that will correct the problem. Pain pills will only cover up the symptoms as will other meds, but they won't heal anything. Try eating foods with more vitamin D and if you want you can try herbal supplements that knock the edge off of pain such as devils claw or feverfew. And don't over work your arms and shoulders, but do light exercises so they don't get weaker.

go to a outdoor/sporting goods store and buy a sharping stone then just glide the blade along the stone but be careful not to cut your self!

OK, the short answers:\n\nQ: My hand is tingling and is sore too what happened?\nA: You probably subluxated your shoulder, meaning it popped slightly out of the socket, but not fully. This being said, any one of several things could have happened to your hand, injury or subsequent pain are quite common with this type of injury. More than likely you've strained a nerve or pinched one.\n\nQ:The doc x rayed and said it is back in place and he said i have rotary cup damage what does that mean?\nA: Your rotary cup is the collection of muscles binding and holding your shoulder into the socket. Some tearing or stretching (straining) of these muscles are common with this type of injury.\n\nQ: He said i may need surgery why is that?\nA: If you have actually torn some or all of your rotary cup, surgery will be required in order to reconnect the muscle tissues and ensure proper healing.\n\nQ: I am supposed to check the circulation in my hand every once in awhile by checking my finger nails why do I have to do that?\nA: This is called "capillary reaction". What you are doing is pushing all the blood out of the capillaries under your nail and ensuring it fills back up in good time. You were asked to check this to ensure that your loosened shoulder is not pinching off any veins and that you haven't damaged any during the injury, which would probably result in you loosing your arm (the capillary reaction under normal circumstances for most people turns white when pinched and red within a couple seconds afterward).\n\nQ: Do i have to wear the collar and cuff that he gave me?\nA: If you want to heal, yes. Attempting to move the arm retards the healing process greatly and can cause improper healing.\n\n\nFinal Thoughs: To speed your healing, do EVERYTHING your doctor tells you. Wear your cuff, avoid moving/jarring your shoulder, maintain appointments with doctor and call him/her if you have questions or something seems wrong.\n\n\nAdditional Questions:\n-Your chiro is not a MD.\n-Muscles tears generally will not show up in Xray\n-Your doc should make that descision with you.

again hun?! i cant believe u broke that promise again. u know there isnt a way we hav figured out to make it heal faster. this neosporn im reading doesnt work, we confirmed that one right? =]] and all this stop cutting u can hurt urself, well no duh, isnt that the point? to hurt so u actually feel sumthing? just make sure to keep it clean and i guess u could put neospron o if u want. since its on ur ribs and covered most of the time try and let it breathe wen no one is around so it will get the air, and sum sun would b good but i kno u dont go in the sun. so let it breathe and keep it clean. oh and just about that cutting kit idea i acutally finished mine. but the glass isnt very sharp. oh well its just for palms.  but urs, hide it so u can stop for a while, i'll hide it for u if u want. u need to stop for a while. just a while at least.

George,\n\nI'm so sorry that you feel that way.  I've done a little research, and although most of the treatmetn sites are conventional, you can go through them and get a lot more insight that I can provide here.  I hope someone else can come through and recommend something more to your liking as well.\n\nlink to the PA sites:\n\nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=&cat=&meta=&num=&ie=utf-8&q=Psoriatic+Arthropathy

Yes.  Different nerves run to different parts of the shoulder or arm.  I recommend you go to a physiotherapist, and tell the person exactly where it hurts, and what makes the pain worse or better.  They often take several visits to do much good, so be prepared for that.\n\nThey may use manipulation, heat, ultrasound and / or massage, to relieve the pain.  They should describe exercises for you to do, in between seeing them.\n\nPersonally, I generally just resort to analgesics and wait for it to settle of its own accord, but I have gone to a physiotherapist, for a few problems, over the years.

I had shoulder pain when I went to bed. It lasted for about fifteen minutes. I was active without pain. I thought it was a rotater cuff problem I think any recurring pain that lasts for awhile in the upper part of your body should be checked out

A massage school has discounted massages supervised by instructors.   But -- you also put your question under pain/pain management.  If you have back problems I would only go to a professional physical therapist/massage therapist who specializes in manipulating the spine.
