i have had shoulder pain for more than 3 monthes after a swimming injury. i have pain in my shoulder before (even when not swimming) but i didnt take it seriously but after the injury it hurt enough to see a doc. i got x-rays done, been having physical therapy twice a week for 3 monthes and seen a sports medicine physician. i got a mri but my doc said its normal but i requested a copy and it stated:
-benign nodes in shoulder
- fluid in bursa
i have cracking, unbearable pain (with a high pain tolerance), and im on anti-inflammatories, and taping on shoulder but no less pain.
i am also worried because i have found a lump on my collarbone about 6 monthes ago, and forgot about it. now in the shower the other day i felt it and its gotten wayyy bigger.
could the nodes in my shoulder be cancerous? is the lump bad? its on the same side of my injured shoulder so could it be causing pain?
also, im only 13 so how do i tell my parents about the lump,they may not believe me. 10 points!

I just got diagnosed with having spinal canal stenosis, L5-S1 Facet arthropathy, a bulging disc, a pinched nerve and a retroverted uterous. What the H!!! I am only 24 yrs old, the doc’s said this could have happened because I was a gymnast growing up. Can being fit really damage my body like this? what are the treatments for all the pain I am having? The medicines perscribed are not helping and the physical therapy feels like it’s making it worse! I can’t hardly keep up with my two small children.
I am a 17 year old male around 130 pounds very active. I play tennis, but have chronic back, knee and general joint pain. When I was 15 years old I was diagnosed with mild scoliosis. Later that year I experienced a stress fracture in my femur and developed longer term tendinitis in my ankles and knees. Low grade pain medication have not worked in the slightest bit, and I don’t want to be on pain killers or anything of the sort. My parents are opposed to chiropractors and physical therapy. What can i do to get some relief……. i want to try a session with a massage therapist specializing in chronic back pain (shes a family friend) or a chiropractor. What do you suggest???
Lately my lower back by the back of my pelvis, I experience sharp but mostly aching pain sometimes followed by numbness and throbbing. It’s very close to the nerves, and the vertebrates in my back are sensitive to the touch and if pressed on correctly, I will experience extremely sharp pain.

i can’t seem to decide between nursing and physical therapy… i want to talk to my physical therapist about majoring in it for college but i’m not sure how to bring it up? i don’t want to seem like a pain!
i don’t care about the money… what are your thoughts on it as well?
Okay so im creative , but i dont have much to work with at this point currently.

well first of all i am a basketball player 5′9 and can grab rim but in the beginning of the season i had to do physical rehab for my knee they gave me some things that would make me run and jump higher i am in good shape but my overall flexibility is moderately bad. so my question is if you can give me some stretches that improve range of motion and flexibility that would be awesome and or pointers in jumping higher. and if you can back it up that would be great but if you cant thats all right by the way my knee is fine now.
Are there different types of therapists? By that I mean like people that study specifically for adults, kids, handicapped, etc.
How many years does it take to graduate?
Are physical therapists considered doctors?
One of the first thearapies that I had for pain was physical therapy. Work hardening therapy was miraculious. Each time I went for therapy, a short time later, I would move the wrong way and another part of my body was injured. Eventually, I quit trying therapy. For all who say exercise and threapy are the answer, you are extremely wrong. It has been proven that exercise is not for all diseases and does make some people’s diseases worsen.
