Sports Injury: A Site for Sore Shoulders, New Delhi, India

Feb. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- Microscopic muscle tears and strains are a normal response to heavy exercise. These minor ‘injuries’ don’t usually present any problems since the trainer is rarely aware of them, acknowledging only a passing soreness a few days after a workout.

When the body is allowed sufficient time to deal with these strains, they present no problems.  However, when recovery isn’t allowed to happen then these minor injuries may snowball into more acute training and sports injuries.

A typical site for this accumulative or ‘stacked’ type of sports injury is the shoulder. A+ Orthopaedic and Sports Med Clinic can often help in identification and resolution. Bodybuilders often complain of pain in the frontal region of the shoulder, with pain radiating across the chest and down into the upper arm.

These findings commonly point to a Bicipital Tendonitis type injury which has progressed steadily often over a period of months, from a minor and occasional niggle to a dehabilitating injury which warrants a rest from training for any serious bodybuilder these enforced breaks can be a major handicap to progress.
The biceps muscle consists of two heads.
The long head passes from the shoulder blade down into the upper arm to attach just below the elbow.  Thus it acts to flex the elbow joint.

On its way to the elbow, the long head of the biceps passes through a groove in the frontal surface of the upper arm bone, or humerus. This narrow and shallow groove is most often the site of injury. The tendon of the latissimus dorsi (lats) is attached to the base of this groove. On the outer lip of the groove, the pectoralis major (pecs) is attached and on the inner lip of the groove, the teres major.

We can see then that, within a space of a few inches, a large number of powerful muscles combine and act.
Because of the congestion here, the area is prone to injury.

The mechanism of injury usually begins with a minor episode of discomfort following a brief period of raised sports training intensity. The soreness in the outer pec and shoulder, from these workouts, never quite wears off. This is a sign that more serious damage has occurred.

One of the muscles attaching close to or running through the Bicipital groove may then become inflamed.
