I’m getting older I guess, and should be more active - pinching achey pain in my right shoulder. Yesterday, I got off the couch to show my partner something on my phone, was totally fine, when I went to go back to the couch, my shoulder was fucked. Didn’t lift anything, not even myself with it, and now I’m stressed I’ve somehow torn my rotator cuff. Slept on it like an idiot (toss and turn in my sleep), and it’s worse today, of course. Doesn’t hurt when my arm is straight and I raise it to the side, but it canes when I bend my elbow so my forearm is down, and lift it so my upper arm is flush with my shoulder. So pulling up my undies and pants is very painful.
I’m prolly just overreacting. Been doing slow stretches as I thought it could be a pinched nerve. But I’ve freaked myself out with Dr Google I think 😅😅 if it doesn’t go away I’ll go to my GP - need to anyway for ✨mental health✨

Just a little venty-vent
I remember that fairly recently I got up from my office chair to go to the bathroom. Took 4 steps and BAM! My back locked up lol
If your shoulder hurts it ain’t your rotator. That hurts in your upper arm.
