Lifting injury advice

[MiccyNarc]

A few months ago I Strained my pec doing military presses sans warming up first. For the first few days I could barely use my left arm, it has since gotten better, my left pec is just painful most of the time. I can lift just as much with my left side as my right, it just hurts. I've been abstaining from military presses as they aggravate it. This has been going on since mid march. Seems like nothing helps...taking days off does nothing...been taking a week off and it's still not improved at all. Wondering if it's a nerve injury or something. Blah. Advice HL2.net?

whatever is causing you pain, stop doing it. burn it with fire. eat two cookies and call me in the morning. see a doctor. do a barrel roll. replace the batteries.

On a more serious ote, see a doctor.

 

[Cormeh]

In all seriousness, tried deep heat? Pack the lifting in for a while, apply deep heat and perhaps start doing a bit more stretching.

rest rest rest, and eat reasonably. get back into it when you can

call or check up with a doctor would be good advice, i did that and thats what they told me

 

[CyberPitz]

As in EVERYTHING, if it's hurting too much for far too long...it's doctor time.

 

[Evo]

Go see a physio may offer better advice than some random Doc who may not know much about that kinda injury
