Move the Shoulder Gently to Avoid Pain
Use the shoulder within its comfortable range to aid recovery. When you have a shoulder problem, if you rest completely, the shoulder can stiffen up significantly.
Do not go outside of your comfort zone when using the arm. If you need to reach above your head, make sure you find a comfortable route to take the arm. Don’t put the shoulder through the pain barrier.
If you over use your shoulder, it will tell you by hurting a lot more. Keep it gentle, keep it mobile, don’t overuse it.
