Sorry you are having pain. We definitely agree that medical systems can seem a bit backward sometimes. Hope that you have success and find relief!

I guess I wouldn't be able to say. Maybe something you'd want to consult someone in person about.

It's just when someone has a sternum that protrudes a bit and feels or looks like a slight bump in the middle of the chest

Unfortunately this is something you should talk about with your doctor

Glad you felt like it was a good part of your healing! Those reactions you list can definitely happen.

Glad you enjoyed! They definitely feel great to relax the body!

Oh wow we haven't heard about that before! Thanks so much for sharing!

So glad you found it helpful!

That makes sense that the tricep press back is comfortable because that is a very stable position for the shoulder. Maybe you could even start by trying the push up against a wall? Just to focus on the form? If this is still uncomfortable, maybe trying very light dumbbell press on your back? Even laying on the floor because then that limits the range of motion. Especially with history of fracture, the clicking might never go away completely, but I hope you find exercises that work for where you are at!

@@docjenfit Thanks for getting back to me! Pressup against the wall is still sore, but dumbbell press lying on my back on the floor is fine (even with relatively heavy weights). Maybe I just need that restricted range of motion at the elbow.

Glad you have found that works for you! Vivobarefoot has amazing Hiking Boot options with their barefoot profile! We love them!

I've heard how debilitating they can be! Hope you are feeling relief now!

Agreed!

Thanks so much for the suggestion!

Oh no I'm so sorry! I hope that was just an initial reaction and that he is feeling relief now!

Definitely hear that! It's tough on these videos that are from our podcast. We try to get video of us doing some of the exercises, but that can be difficult to get everything.

Thanks so much for sharing! I also can find it personally difficult to sift through the nutritional research and information but definitely land in the realm of eating mostly Whole Foods with a heavy plant focus for a lot of meals!

Also gym is limited due to my ailments.. aswell as my right food shattered on my break pedal beginning of last summer so ... I can go on with the surgeries I've had treatment.. shot, meds, ect.. something seriously wrong with my neck.. for lice of me can't get mri.. also vascular issues(veins blow All the time) I'm 5'4" rite now I'm a bit heavier side from my break 140lbs

Thanks so much for reaching out and sharing all of this with us. It can be very difficult, especially with such a busy life and 3 kiddos. Unfortunately, I really can't give specific exercises or ideas for you, as that would be something someone should do in person with you. Sometimes my recommendation to people is to try focusing less on what all the MRI's say and focus more on the current ability that you have. Then find things that you can do that would add maybe 5% extra movement or exercise each day, ideally things that are relatively comfortable for you (understanding that there might not be much that is super comfortable for you right now). That can help you focus on slowly increasing your function while trying not to increase symptoms too much. I know that doesn't give you much and it's much more complicated than a simple KZbin comment. We do have great plans on our platform, Jen Health, that go over every area of the body, if that was of interest. You can check out a free week and see if it's something that might fit for you: jen.health/freetrial Just little movement bits that you could add in throughout the day.

Appreciate that! Right now we aren't looking for that type of help!

@@docjenfit If you feel the need, feel free to let me know. Thank you.

So glad you found it helpful!

So glad it was helpful!

If you look at the chapters you can always jump right to the "How to treat it" or "What to do section". I think it right around 7:00 in this video.

Thank you!

Of course!

Thanks so much for sharing! So if you don't try to do any sort of rehab or change something, it might persist for a while. It can be especially difficult while working manual labor, because we are definitely putting a lot of strain on the ribs during that. I would definitely recommend trying to use some of the suggestions in this video to add into your daily routine, maybe just quickly in the morning and at night, to help down regulate your nervous system. We also have a great program that incorporates a lot of great breath work, foam rolling, mobility, and ribcage work that is great for this. You could get a bonus discount using code OPTIMAL20 at checkout. Here's the course if you want to check it out: jen.health/grateful

Thank you so much!

Totally! So many people do it without even realizing it! Good luck with your recovery!

Thank you so much!

Thanks for the heads up!

So glad you have been using it! Yes, for exercise 2, you just don't want the shoulder to start popping forward when your hand goes down. You want to try keeping stable on in the shoulder blade.

@@docjenfit thank you!

Thanks!!

So glad you enjoy it!

So glad you found it helpful! We have a whole shoulder plan on our Jen Health platform you could check out! You get a week for free through this link: jen.health/freetrial
