Suggest Treatment For Bubble Like Feeling In Upper Back
24 yr old male, 6 3 215 lbs, i started getting injuries recently from weightlifting and 2 of my worst injuries are both of my rotator cuffs and in my upper back i feel like there is a bubble and only time I get any relief is when I bend down and stretch it. Any suggestions how to take care of these problems, thanks
You have both rotator cuff tear of shoulder joint along with upper back pain. I advise you to consult your orthopedic specialist to get both your shoulder and upper back assessed and if requires to get an MRI done before you get back to the gym. Once these are done then you can go back to weight lifting as per his advice. Till that time, I would advise you to go slow in the gym.
Wish you a speedy recovery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Santosh S. Jeevannavar, Orthopedic Surgeon
