Keeping this one sorta short since there’s really not a ton to update on. I started going to physical therapy this last month because I lost mobility in my right shoulder, I couldn’t even raise my arm up and drawing hurt really bad. Not that it really stopped me from drawing lol, I’m too stubborn for that.
I suppose the injury from the car accident I was in a year ago finally caught up with me. It started out with pain when I woke up and then slight jolts of pain in my shoulder and forearm when I moved a certain way (I thought it was maybe must muscle cramps at first, because i’d experienced them for a couple months) but then when it didn't go away I talked to my doctor and she recommended I see a specialist. Went in for an appointment with PT and they said they’re pretty sure I had previously broken or torn my AC joint during the accident and the scarred tissue was causing my shoulder to sit off of where shoulders are supposed to sit.
I’ve had a lot of improvement since then, in only a month I’ve already gained mobility back and I’m not in nearly as much pain thanks to muscle relaxers and anti inflammatories. They also had to scrape my shoulder to break up the scar tissue underneath (which I don’t recommend, that sucks.)
They said they’re hoping I’ll be able to be released after this month, but if not I have a second month booked with them as well. *sigh*
Anything new happening with y’all?
