Shoulder Pain

amslou · Jun 11th, 2009, 07:36 AM

Just wondering ... it could have been from knitting last night but i'm not sure. I feel a bit sick today and have bad shoulder pain in my right shoulder. Feels as though i have pulled a muscle or something.

Is this anything to worry about or am i just being soft?

twice since i've been in third tri i've woken up with a pain in my sholder that feels like i've pulled something or done something really strenous the day b4 (even tho i hadn't) on both occations i couldn't lift my arm up or move it at certain angles and if i tried to it would make me feel really sick (bit like wiplash does...or that just me?) anywho, it went away both times by the next day and i never did work out what i'd done. i guess i just slept funny and maybe trapped something? its a mystery! but i don't think its anything to worry abt x

Also long as you don't have pain inbetween your shoulder blades I would say it's probably just a sore muscle. But if you do have pain inbetween and feel sick to your stomcah or puking that could be a sign of gall bladder problem. Just an FYI.......but yours sounds like it's just a sore muscle!

Take care and take paracetaoml, or tyneol and ice up for 15 mins every 2 hours. Good luck. Hope it gets better

I would agree with the above. I have a gall stone which has just decided to flare up, and I have been getting shoulder pain. As long as it stays in your shoulder it probably is just a muscle or something silly.

You're right about being PG - you turn into a mental case worrying about everything - im exhusted from it!

I occasionally have right sholder discomfort too and I assumed it was from having to only sleep on my sides (I typically am a stomach sleeper). Good luck to ya-
