Is it possible to tear or pull your chest muscles from coughing?
Hurt my back when lift my laptop. Got to a doctor and had xray. Doctor said something about lower bone dislocate to the left, caused by muscle strain. Pain is everyday, even when im resting. The pain start from upper back, lower back, buttock and thigh. I cant sleep. Already 6 months
I get a really painful stinging sensation under my breast. Is this exercise that I should be doing for my condition?
Please reply asap. Thank you
So the real question is, what do you do first when this muscle strain happens?
Do you rest for a couple of days?
Do you start massaging the area?
Do you start these kinda exercises right away?
Hi Bob and Brad, what is the exact mechanism behind the cross fibre massage? Is it to break the adhesions?
The moment he said ibuprofen.. i quit watchin another clown that refers to fkn ibuprofen for everything… useless
When I touch the injured upper pec i feel something weird inside and it’s tight that I don’t feel it in the other pec,is that normal?
Just tore my calf muscle today and found your video. So very helpful! Thank you!
TIME TO GET RID OF THE T SHIRTS TO SEE THE WORKING MUSCLE/S THANKS FOR VIDEO…
Hey guys, I injured my calf playing racquetball about eight years ago. I did the whole RICE treatment process on it and got it to heal. About four years ago I reinjured it and went through the process again. Now, I have reinjured it again but I am in a different situation because I did so while working (jumping in and out of a truck while delivering packages). Unfortunately I do not have the option of resting and laying off the activity which reinjured me, because I need to get a paycheck. What can I do to safeguard myself as much as possible?
What about the center of the chest pulled muscles in the center
I pulled mine a couple night ago now when I go for walks & cough it hurts bad is that normal?
I play soccer on the weekends I was kicked outer mid towards the front on my left leg and my muscle is really tender…is this kind of the same thanks
Thank you so very much, the doctor showed me quickly one stretch to do but I forgot and this video gave me the tools I need to take care of this pain. It’s bothering me day and night.
I have a sharp pinch under my left armpit from pulling down on a bar in the gym. I went to the ortho he said it wasn’t a tear it was a strain but its been going on 6 weeks and still get the pain doing normal day to day activities (haven’t been back in the gym) When will I see some healing with this?!
I was doing push ups as conditioning for my boxing practice and I was sore from the day before, once I tried to do it I got about 2 push ups done and then instant pain on my chest towards my shoulder. (kinda like where an undershirt strap would sit) and im scared I pulled something or tore something. I just know there’s something wrong.:(
i think i pulled a muscle under my left boob, CAN THAT HAPPEN OR AM I SICK?
Why do I feel like I cant get a full contraction of my right pec and it feels weak. Please any feedback is appreciated
The massage advice was particularly helpful. Breaking up scar tissue is an undervalued aspect of recovery and regaining a full range of motion. Sometimes, one can feel as though they are still hurt, when it’s really scar tissue getting in the way.
Pec major muscle partial tear. 9mmx2mmx8mm. Would You consider this a server strain?
All of a sudden while lying in bed I felt the pain more toward the center and it hurt to breathe. Could not determine what caused it as I do not do any bench pressing. Maybe I turned too abruptly and cause a strain. Appreciate these stretches and hope it will subside.
Hello all I need help if possible, in the last three weeks or so I have developed a severe pain in my right side chest muscle that really is not an issue at work during the day but at night when I roll over during sleep it actually makes me yell out in pain. Also if i’m laying down and use my left elbow to raise up with the pain that it creates on my right side outer muscle? of the chest is some of the worst I have ever experienced. I recently had lab work done and the notes from the Doc said great job keep up the diet and exercise so i’m sure its not my ticker. I have a fairly physical job where I lift 50 pounds many times throughout the day and nothing that I have done at work has caused me any discomfort. I’m 54 with no medical conditions but I am about 30 pounds over where I should be and fairly agile for a fat boy, thanks for any input and have a great day.
This really help man, immediately my arm is moving much smoothly and without restriction. Thank you!
How soon after the strain should start massaging it. And how long should you ice it for.
If you have a calf injury/tear can you continue to exercise on a stationary bike if it does not produce discomfort or pain? Or would that slow healing? I don’t want to get to de-conditioned……..
