So a trip to the orthopedic doctor today revealed a strained and inflamed muscle in my shoulder. This resulted in a cortisone shot and meds and no lifting or golf for a month unfortunately. I’m thinking this is has something to do with my backswing as the pain is in my left shoulder blade and I can feel the “pull” as my left arm is in the furthest position in the backswing( I’m right handed). With that being said, my question is has anyone else had this type of injury and how did you correct it when you started playing again? I’m also thinking maybe I should take a lesson and see if the teacher sees something improper in my swing to avoid this happening again once I’m able to get back at it. The one good thing about this all is my PA I dealt with today is a golfer and said if everything starts to heal up, I can start with half swings on a simulator or range then work my way back to nine holes then eighteen. It’s like a golf Physical Therapy plan.
