Mercy, I'd heard a shoulder rotator cuff injury could be awful. I have happily not known this until the last few weeks. Ever have this? What did you do for self-care (I'm doing RICE already. It helps.) Better to rest or move or yes? #shoulder #rotatorCuff #injury #help #advice 馃挏

Three shoulder surgeries later... Painful yes! What helped me was rolling up a hand towel and put it under my arm and sleeping with a small pillow for my arm. I did not have rotator cuff issues, but maybe this will help you too.

The small pillow definitely helps, thank you. Three surgeries? That's what I'd like to avoid unless absolutely necessary. I kept my spleen and gall bladder and am much better for it, so it's difficult to always know what's best to do!

So glad it helped! Calcific tendonitis... 1-L, 2-R ... From coding for years in a bad chair. Luckily nothing torn but lots of calcium. Blech! I hope you have a speedy recovery, Molly
