OUCH ! I jumped for a real hard spike yesterday in volleyball, how can I help my shoulder?? |
my team mate Erica set it for me, I jumped like 5 feet, it was marvelous, I got the point with a super hard landing on my shoulder.......oww....hellppp.... congrats on the point. But how did you land on your shoulder spiking the ball? Did you forget to put your feet down 1st? On a serious note, day 1 requires some rest and let the body heal itself a little. day 2 you should use the hot cold alternating 10 - 15 minutes each method. If it is feeling better than possibly do some light stretching. If the pain is still great on day 3, go to the doctor, if it feels like it is getting better, than heat for 15 minutes stretch and do a light work out. If your not fully healed by day 4 go to the doctor and make sure you didn't do any serious damage. Good luck and keep up the high jumping!! 5' straight up is almost a world record!! get some muscle rub and rub it down real good. or you can just ice it. you're the best.. you and erica kick ace If applying ice doesn't help the soreness, call your doctor for advice. The internet doesn't usually have as much medical training as your doctor. ice pack , heating pad, muscle rub, hot soak in the tub since it was yesterday, treat with mild heat and lots of stretching. I've found that swimming is wonderful for shoulder injuries. Put ice on it for a long time to numb the pain and help if it's swollen. |
