I’m out of my sling now and starting to regain some range of motion and strength. I attend physical therapy twice a week, and slowly but surely, my shoulder is responding. I’m often asked what physical therapy is like for a shoulder injury so to answer that, I’ll refer you to the part in the “Princess Bride” movie where Westley is having his life sucked out of him by the six-fingered man. That comparison may be especially helpful to anyone who is beginning to feel some shoulder discomfort but is holding off on having it evaluated. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from this injury, it’s that it’s never too early to have a shoulder issue looked at. Sooner or later, a price is going to be paid. And the longer you wait, the higher the price - in more ways than one.
