I have some gel bio-freeze, also, but it makes me so cold I only use it when I'm about to crawl into bed with a heating pad. Which may be soon
PT has been going a bit better and there is less numbness in the left side of my body. But the pain in the right shoulder is a 7 on a "good day" and is currently growing.... I've talked with the PT about it but they only believe exercise and education will help..... I have a knot below the shoulder blade the size of a neck vertebrate. I don't know how to loosen it. I suggested massage, which they don't do there, and she said "well, it may feel good, but it wouldn't do anything." I could just cry, it hurts so bad and radiates down my arm. I use tennis balls on it against the wall, anti-inflammatories, massage it myself, use the bio-freeze.... HELP! Please
