Pain while doing pullups?!
Question: Pain while doing pullups!?
i've been doing pullups a lot lately, consistently for the past month or so!. however, a couple of days ago some pain in my left side came up!.
it's hard to pinpoint the pain, but it seems like its under my left deltoid/lower shoulder!. could it be a rotator cuff injury!?
i can do bicep curls, etc!. perfectly fine, but when i go for a pullup, the pain comes up it almost feels like a knife or something stabbing me inside, except not that bad!. it's just a sharp pain!.
i can still do the pullups as well, it's just really, really uncomfortable! also, when i was at the gym today i found that after i had done my bicep exercises for awhile, the pain subsided a bit!. not completely, but a little bit!.
i know this is really vague/no substitute for a doctor, but im just trying to get an idea of whether i can just rest/ice for awhile for it to heal!.
thanks for any help!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
you could have just strained something!. its probally not to serous since it only hurts during pullups!. ice would be a good thing to do!. but if it hurts doing them you should take a break for a week or so and then see how the pain is!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
