I am recovering from a complete proximal humerous fracture. It has been a month. I am out of the sling and was told the bones are to soft for PT but that I can do some exercises on my own. What I don t know is what is good pain that is stretching and strengthening and what is bad pain that can perhaps still move the fractured bones?
Dear Sir/Madam, I thank you for having faith in Chat Doctor and for seeking help on your issue; see good pain do not hurt, but bad pain does, gentle shoulder lifting with the help of your other hand can never cause bad pain, its only when someone else moves your shoulder the pressure can be excessive and painful. I hope I have been able to provide you with a satisfactory solution, if you want to clear any doubts about my opinion, feel free to contact. Special note-Any medication prescribed needs to be taken after consultation with your personal doctor only. Thanks
