I have pain in the right shoulder and scapula every time I tilt my head in the other way, 45% to the left side. The pain is intense and starts from the neck to the back between the scapula and the spine and spread top the right to the entire scapula or even further around the ribs. I use to carry a lot of bags and many times in one hand.... Your videos are very detailed and very well explained. Thank you.

[@dinaphan8504]

I have been checking out your videos. I am suffering chronic pain all over my left side due to job related posture( dental hygienist). After unsuccessful treatments from therapists, doctors… I turned to KZbin and found you… and subscribed. Watching your explanation, the best course of anatomy I’ve ever have😀. I failed lateral rotation, over 120 degree side up and a bit pain, tight on scratching test, I have more pain on lateral pulling. Follow your recommended stretches, feel much better now. And still searching more of your videos to solve my lower back pain. Thank you so much. Of course, I subscribed. Happy new year from States.

[@PrecisionWellbeing]

Hey Dina, You're absolutely welcome! I'm glad to hear the video proved helpful. Please keep me posted on your progress. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Happy new year and best wishes, Ashley!

Been having pain in my Right shoulder for a couple of months and just started looking into it because it hasn't gotten any better and maybe a little worse. I have been getting better at not putiing my shoulder in awkward/painful positions or movements but occasionally will move it to the point where I get severe pain that last for 10-20 seconds... I loved how you showed the anatomy of the rotator cuff muscles.. Well Done! I started doing the test and am get medium pain in abduction, little pain in internal rotation but I get severe pain doing external rotation to the point where I can't even get my arm around my back to do the Scratch Back Test... With that said I can't do the band exercises... I will try to do the tennis ball massages. I have been doing RC exercises for the last week and it seems to have lessen the extreme pain senarious but I still cant reach behind my back... Anyone else having this and how did you resolve it. Thanks, Dan

[@jakeeaves3119]

Doing the arm across with thumb down i have minimal pain, but i cannot turn my hand facing upwards due to intense pain, little confused

[@NIKTO477]

hello from Florida! wish you was my primary doctor! I! 'm very pleased with the guiding and explanation Ashley and I downloaded your great book, my respect and many thanks!!!

[@zarimaddah1475]

Your videos are very informative, and I have watched most of them, thank you for sharing them. I have chronic shoulder pain, it is over 14 months now. The pain goes down the arms, and I also have tension and pain in neck and upper back as well. I got frozen shoulder for a while and had cortisone injection and hydrodilatation which helped with the frozen shoulder. Then one more cortisone injection and lots of rehab/mobility exercises to reduce the pain. I felt much better after months of exercise but for only three weeks I was not able to do them and had a huge setback and the pain came back stronger. The current diagnosis is impingement, but I don’t know what else to do. I think I am still in phase one and not sure how long it will take to see more improvement.

[@christucker9020]

Very helpful thanks. I've been in slight pain for a few days but I woke up in the middle of the night in more pain hearing what sounded like a tearing muscle so this video has helped me rule a few things out and how to deal with it at 1st. So thanks

[@sxs-hx2cg]

10:21 , when doing this test , I have a cracking sound but not pain while lifting my arms up. The same cracking noise occurs if i lift my hands up from the front of my body. Is that a sign of an impingement and what should I do about it?

[@lynnegialanze8650]

Great video very informative thanks 🇦🇺

[@PrecisionWellbeing]

You're most welcome Lynne! I hope it helps. Best wishes form London, Ashley.

[@jason147h6]

Fantastic video Ashley with very detailed information on the shoulder mechanics. After having almost 10yrs of shoulder problems in both shoulders that have included calcification of the suprispinitus i now have poor strength in both shoulders and pain beyond the 120° test mark that you mention could be tightness in the shoulders. I've had injections into the bursa that gave temporary relief. What sort of exercise do i need to help relieve tight muscles?

[@ajaykumar-iq5nf]

Can you give information regarding distal clavicular osteolysis and possible treatments available.

[@thinktricks5191]

Do you have any videos related to hyper-mobility caused shoulder pain? The muscle group in the front side of the should blade seems to be the source of pain. Thank you for all you’ve shared on hips and neck too. All this information has been a tremendous help!!

[@arunp8362]

Thank you for sharing this video. I think I have Supraspinatus tendinitis or bursitis after doing the test. Do I need to visit a doctor ? Please advise

[@paulrock3877]

Excellent.

[@PrecisionWellbeing]

Thank you Paul! I hope it helped. Best wishes, Ashley.

[@engs4990]

Hello sir, my pain is on minute 14:42, with my palm face up... What should I do? Thank you so much!

[@Angelica-pu3dq]

Very informative. I'm in ao much pain...8/10 and I believe it may be frozen shoulder bc I can't lift my arm more than a couple inches. Does that sound right, Ashley? I haven't watched your frozen shoulder video yet and I'm going to do that now. This sucks so bad. When I look in the mirror I can see that my right shoulder is low and even rotated inwards a bit.

[@sxs-hx2cg]

Btw, I've watched a lot of your videos, so informative coherent, well explained ... for free! Well done and thank you!

[@PrecisionWellbeing]

Thank you very much Alice! Glad to hear you find the videos insightful. Let me know if there's any topic you'd like me to cover next. Best wishes, Ashley.

[@LordBonesaw]

I dislocated and broke my shoulder and arm in 4 different places this time last year and had to have ORIF surgery with metal plate etc…. Now a year on I’m starting to lift small things… it’s such a long recovery and you never fully recover as arm limited etc

[@jwatkins9520]

I had rotater cuff surgery in September due to a dislocated shoulder I sustained in a vehicle accident. I've been doing physical therapy 3 times a week since the day after the surgery. My shoulder is still very,very tight. I'm afraid that I'll have to be anesthetized and manually manipulated. My PT's don't seem to feel that way but, my shoulder has super limited range of motion..

[@theoneunique9335]

Thank you this video was very very helpful , your diagnosis worked perfect for me , the scratch movement was. Really hard for me for one arm , i can only go pass my buttocks, cant go higher than that .

[@PrecisionWellbeing]

Hi. I am glad to hear that the video has been helpful. Keep on, with time it should get easier. Please keep me posted on your progress. Best wishes, Ashley.

[@Zainzami99]

[@derawarfoods9778]

[@soyyo9704]

How do I fix my shoulder, I have lump on shoulder, (versa!), thank you.

[@gioking99]

All tests were negative but my shoulder is so sore 🤔 feels like i was training really hard for lot of hours. When i try to do some shoulder trainings even with very light weight or bench press pain is very intense. What else it might be? P.s i was training in gym+swimming 1 hour for past 3 months 3 times per week

Thank you! I hope the video has been helpful. Best wishes, Ashley.

[@MarkTitus420]

Thank you sir so much for sharing your expertise through your videos. A week ago I was in severe shoulder pain and had to go the doctor who prescribed me some kind of steroid medication to help ease the pain and bring back movement to my left shoulder. I feel 100% percent better you are partially to thank for all that you do here. You're a life saver and I wish I could shake your hand in gratitude❤️

[@PrecisionWellbeing]

You're absolutely welcome! I'm happy to hear your shoulder is doing better. What stretches were most helpful to you? Do let me know. Wishing you a smooth and speedy recovery! Best wishes, Ashley.

[@MarkTitus420]

@@PrecisionWellbeing So far everything is great and I was able to finally get back into exercising my shoulder again today thanks to your videos. I did view your stretches video but I will have to get some stretch bands. One stretch I did find very helpful and actually soothing is the doorway stretch that I saw from another great therapist like yourself. Also very slow and controlled shoulder shrugs are very soothing. Thanks again! I wish I could buy you a beer🍻
