I’m having pain in my right shoulder that hurts when I move my arm from left to right and when I pick up something heavy or push down on something. Also in the left one but not as bad. My arm muscles are really weak.
A few days ago I was cleaning the bathtub and I felt something move in that shoulder.
Today the bicep muscle in that arm is swollen and a little bruised.
I’ve been doing the “what is causing this new pain?” search for weeks. X-rays show osteoarthritis in the hips, knees, sciatic joints, and lower, lumbar, spine. Tests for RA were negative. RA factor slightly elevated and sed rate and CPR have gone down and are in normal range. GP says everything is normal.
I see an orthopedic doctor this week as my gate has gotten wobbly and painful. I also have scoliosis, mild to medium, and a painful, swollen, right ankle.
Since these tests I’ve developed the shoulder pain and also pain in the wrists and hands in the joints at the beginning of the fingers.
Sorry for this long post!I guess the swollen muscle is most concerning right now.
Any suggestions as to how to sort all this is appreciated.
