Re: Shoulder pain > Katalin

[Guest guest]

Katalin,

You poor thing. It is awful and uncomfortable and absolutely

horrible. I didn't have the shoulder tip pain, but lots of other

nasty problems with major bruising and the wind pain under my left

rib cage where I had a haematoma the size of a small football!!!

So... heat pack, if you haven't got one, get one asap. Use the heat

pack as well as a bag of frozen peas. When it is at its worse

alternate between the two to try and help. Take the pain killers

every 4 hours and don't miss. Walk Walk Walk! I know it is hard to

do that, but as soon as the pain starts up, walk. I still get the

pain under my left ribs if I over eat... the only thing that helps

is walking to get rid of the wind.

Hang in there, I promise you it will improve. Shoulder tip pain is

the pits and you will come out the other side... I am sure there

will be lots of other advice through the day that will be of help.
