The dangers of scapula blockage

The harm caused by blockage of the scapula joint is relatively large. It often leads to stiffness of the shoulder joint and significantly limits the mobility of the shoulder joint. In addition, patients often feel numbness and dull pain in the shoulder area. This brings great harm to life and work. It is easy to cause nerve compression and nerve damage for a long time, leading to numbness of the hands, etc. Therefore, timely treatment should be carried out at this time.

The dangers of scapula blockage

The shoulder joint is stiff and cannot be raised high. There is dull pain when turning the arm and around the shoulder. For this reason, most patients always think that if they can endure the slight pain or inflexibility of the shoulder joint, rest a little more, and stop using it, the stiffness and pain of the shoulder joint will recover automatically.

As time went on, my shoulder, which used to hurt only when I moved, started to hurt even when I slept at night, affecting my sleep. The symptoms of frozen shoulder have become so severe that they affect daily life. The shoulder joints cannot be raised to hold the handrails in the subway car, and women are unable to comb their hair, button their skirts, or hang clothes. Over time, the muscle strength of the affected limb gradually deteriorates. If you are right-handed and have right shoulder periarthritis, it will cause considerable inconvenience to your daily life and work.

When the disease occurs, people cannot work normally and their lives are affected. Long-term compression of the nerves can cause nerve damage and numbness in the hands. Long-term compression of blood vessels will cause poor blood flow in the hands and shoulders, and in severe cases will cause muscle atrophy. Due to extensive adhesions around the joints, the movement of the joints in all directions is significantly restricted, and may even cause joint stiffness, forming a "frozen shoulder".

The first step is to use the palm and thumb of the healthy side to massage the front and outer side of the painful shoulder joint from top to bottom. After 1 to 2 minutes, use the thumb to press the local painful point. The second step is to use the pads of the 2nd to 4th fingers of your hand to massage each place on the back of the shoulder joint for about 1 to 2 minutes. If you find any pain points during the massage, you can continue to press with your fingers for a while. The third step is to use your thumb and other fingers to knead the upper limb and upper arm muscles on the painful side, from bottom to top to the shoulder, for about 1 to 2 minutes. Step 4. You can also use the above method to massage around the healthy shoulders. While massaging the shoulders, move the shoulder joints in all directions. Step 5. Use your palms to rub from top to bottom for 1 to 2 minutes. If there are places that cannot be massaged, use patting method to massage.
