I had my forearm in a plaster cast for a month due to a fractured wrist, a which point due to a miscommunication, a paramedic cut it off (I was suspose to be x-rayed through the cast, but the paramedic thought the doctor wanted it off). After examining my xray the verdict was my fracture was healing, but not healed. Back in a cast for another 2 weeks. Read more of this post
I have fairly built up traps from doing tons of shoulder shrugs. The only problem is i can’t seem to stretch them correctly. I feel the stretch in the rest of the muscle, except the top part that forms theses two humps on the side of my neck. The only thing i can do to ease soreness seems to be getting a message. Please help! Read more of this post

This is what happened:
I had been outside for quite a while and it was very cold, in the 40s i think. I had no gloves so my hand were very cold. I tried to make a fist with my hand, and when i did it was as if the cold had stiffened the veins (or tendons i’m not sure which, but the bruising is along the veins) and so the action of making the fist forced them to stretch causing a lot of pain.

My mother insisted that it was just bruised and there was a slight ache there for the first two years, especially when I sat on a heated surface such as heated seats in a car.

I broke my distal humerus bone in my right arm 6 years ago, when i was 9. It was recommended that go to a therapist regularly for rehab, however my parents didn’t think I’d need it and it was extremely expensive. So I didn’t go to a therapist and instead (once i got my cast off) my mom and i worked on extending my arm to it’s full length-since my arm was set in a halfway position. It took a long time and it was recommended by my doc that i be put under anesthesia and have my arm forcibly extended so i could straighten it all the way. That didn’t happen either.
