A ‘clack’ on my shoulder

This afternoon I had to rush to my karate class because I was late again. When I got into my car and sped off, I reached out for the buckle above my right shoulder. Suddenly, I heard a loud audible ‘clack’ coming from my left shoulder. I thought I would have worsen my shoulder bursitis. Miraculously, there wasn’t any pain but I felt having better mobility and greater degree of movement. Before this, I could barely lift up my left arm to touch the other shoulder without assistance of my right hand, and the movement would be slow. Now, I can lift up my left arm to touch the other shoulder at will. Of course, I still feel a little sore on my left shoulder.

Anyway, I was very much worried about my shoulder. I was so afraid that I would need a surgery. Thank God that it is improving now.

    Hi Pal,
    How are you now? I prefer you do some static contraction (a form of HIT) weight training, after your recovery. That will strengthen your ligaments and support structure.

    Thanks pal. I am fine. It is not totally recovered yet. Yesterday the pain came again and after a massage with rosemary oil, I feel better now.

    I did an isometric contraction using a push-up posture. My left shoulder was weak and shaky but I somehow made it to count to ten.

    After that, at relax position, I had involuntary movement in my left arm. I hope it is a good sign.
