Frozen Shoulder or sore skin??

by FRONTROWHOOKER - 2012-02-20 05:02:01

I too am two weeks in to my PM implant and developing "frozen shoulder" a result of not moving left arm in case I displace leads. I am an ex pro rugby player and this has come as a shock. My advise is to gentally move shoulder so as not to get a "frozen shoulder"...have a massage on shoulder. Head aches can be a result of a F Shoulder. If the soremess is due to the skin breakdown this could be a result of (forgive me) not wasing under the arms well enough due to the lack od movement. Wash armpit well and blowdry with hairdryer and apply some Hydrocotasone fungal cream

Hope this assists
