@@nicolasmunoz6799 No, I’ve found doing weight training has been enough to keep the pain manageable and a lot of the time I don’t notice it now (I work a desk job, so I am not having to use my shoulder a lot which is fortunate). I tried a few things: massage, physio, chiro, even cortisone injections - none helped unfortunately.
i dont mean to be off topic but does someone know of a way to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me
@@morganberna I'm 21 and got it from over use, I'm doing physio and It seems to help, feels like I'm at a last stage with pain that is taking forveer to go, it's been 2 months now. I don't think bursitis is permanent
This reminds me of a horrible shoulder experience that I lived with for about a year before it got better. It came from one day of extensive yard work. The next day, I could not raise my arms above my head, button a shirt, or pick up my child. I was miserable. I finally went to an ortho doctor who gave me steroid shots on both shoulders. The pain was noticably less within minutes. The range of motion came back after PT and rock climbing. It took about 2-3 years to get to 95-99% of where I was before the injury. The doctor said it was "frozen shoulders.". That was an awful experience, but I'm glad I came out ok.
Excellent video! We are in our 80's and feel better than ever! Still work for a strong body and a calm mind. Doing some research for our tiny new healthy-aging advice channel. Learned a lot. Keep it going!
Wow.........my pain right now feel like I got shot......and I've never been shot......it feels like a bullet is inside my arm and they can't get it out
I have this, the pain is agonizing. Unbelievable pain for something that seems small. I got it from sleeping with my arm extended under my head. It also comes with pain near the upper scapula/trap area. A severe burning pain. After 7 months the pain finally wasn't as severe but it's still disabling, I can't use my arm for many things and have to recline or the pain flairs up. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy
@@Freetobeme8181 My MRI showed supraspinatus tendinosis, bursitis, and some fluid on the joint. All supposedly "mild" but you wouldn't know it by the amount of pain. Much of the pain has finally gone away but my God I never knew an injury could take this long to heal. I believe all that's left now is pain from the scar tissue, which is still very bad and I don't know what to do about.
I was diagnosed with acute acromial bursitis of my shoulder by a physical therapist, which I’ve had in both of my shoulders, but thankfully at different times. I could not bear any form of movement in the affected shoulder/arm, even the slightest movement of my arm or hand caused excruciating pain in my shoulder, bringing me to physical tears. I even had to sit in a chair to try and sleep as I could not lie down. This would come on suddenly or with little to no warning, and would last for at least 4-5 weeks at a time. I would not be able to perform any of the movements you suggest, due to the extreme pain, but found your video to be very explanatory, so I now understand the what and the why now. Great info guys thank you.
when in doubt come to Bob and Brad! Every other RUclips search runs around in circles. This one got to the point and gave me a quick diagnosis. Thanks gentleman thank you thank you thank
I have exactly the same problems and pain and stiffness I’m so glad for this video. The physio gave me 2 exercises and to take painkillers I just want it to go away it’s debilitating 😢
hmm. My doctor said it is arthritis and not much they can do about it. It is really enlightening to have a full explanation of what might be going on in both of my shoulders. At 38 I feel like I am way to young for this...
Don't feel bad. I'm 23 and been dealing with recurring shoulder pain flare-ups in my dominant arm from tendonitis/ bursitis for the past year. It happened from one aggressive game of air hockey and is aggravated by lots of computer use and sleeping on it. It's a very lame and annoying injury and I feel like im falling apart like some one 3-4x my age would be.😢
I just had shoulder surgery and thought it was just going to be calcific tendonitis, but my doctor found bursitis and rotator cuff repair. It is one of the most painful things ever, but I’m trying to keep on top of icing, pain medication and PT!
Very good video. Had the soreness/achiness sensation in right shoulder (from tennis). Nothing worked for 6 months. PT didn't work, stretching didn't work. Rest didn't work. Finally did PRP and it provided immediate relief.
@@anneboyle2951 PRP stands for "Platelet Rich Plasma." These are "injections." First they draw your blood. Then they "spin" it in a specially designed centrifuge which separates out your rich platelets from the blood plasma. Then they "inject" back into the area injured the platelets. I've had it done on both my left and right shoulder and it's worked in both instances. The doctor directs it via ultrasound so he/she can see exactly where the platelets are being directed. My orthopedic is in Orange County, CA and if you're in the area let me know and I would be happy to recommend him.
Its been 3 years since u wrote this comment and i wonder if you have fixed ur shoulders and if u have can you tell me how u did it cause im in a similar situation and nothing seems to be working for me ..
I have both on my shoulders, I developed them while having a TB medication along with other arthritis conditions. Everything went away except for my shoulders.
yep, hand on opposite shoulder and raise... hurts like a mother. I've been dealing with this for over a year thinking it would just go away. It happened at the gym doing reverse flys, on top of the motion, just an immediate pinching feeling and its felt like someone has been stabbing the sides of my shoulders ever since. REALLY bad first thing in the morning, the more I get moving the less it hurts, but some days it is brutal. Thank you so much guys!
Thank I don't have anyone of it. But I have pain at the back of my left shoulder after back workout as my left back was not activating putting a lot of strain on the left shoulder
I have had bursitis in my left hip for several years and now the last few months my left shoulder is painful and weak - tests positive with your test movements shown here . I don't sleep on my left side at all . What has caused this ? I think some of this shoulder pain is referred pain from my neck as it was bothering me before the shoulder started acting up .
My pain goes down my arm and towards my breast and neck. I was diagnosed with bursitis, tendonitis and something else not only herniations on my cervical spine and down my spine.
I feel it on my upper tricep side and tenderness when i touch the side of shoulder but I still can move my arm overhead and behind does anyone know what this is and the solution I also got a cortisone shot in that part of the arm like a week ago if it could be that
Maybe this will help someone, an alternative cure. I started having some mild pain in my right shoulder after I started doing overhead push-ups with some small weights. I researched and found out that it was probably bursitis. One thing that one site said is that there needs to be blood flow to that area. Well, I know that magnets, therapeutic magnets, increase blood flow. I taped a therapeutic grade magnet, high gauss, North pole side facing the skin, onto the area of pain. Within 24 hours the pain was gone. Once I had a surgeon to tell me that I needed surgery for pain in my right shoulder. This was not when I was doing those exercises. I’m not sure what was causing the pain at that time, but I put a magnet over the area then too. And the pain went away and I did not need the surgery.
Hey you didnt do anything for the rear delt pain either. I started doing exercises that I googled and it helped immensely (couldnt lift heavy weights overhead )
I have problems on both of my sholders.. I dont know what the problem is. I even cant write. My fingers get slipped. Cant hold mobile phone.. always feels like something is bitting my wing muscle.
They made one 2 yrs ago called Critical Steps to Cure Shoulder Tendonitis, Bursitis or Impingement. Didn't see a more recent video, but I could have just missed it.
I woke up with shoulder pain similar to this. I don’t know what it could have been from because I’ve been doing nothing, just woke up with it. It was during my 1 week break from the gym
Awesome video, however, how do we differentiate the two (bursitis vs tendonitis)? Does it even matter differentiating the two because treatment will be the same regardless?
Please help, my pain appears to be from the bottom of the deltoid there is also a lump there. lifting my arm in any direction hurts but as soon as the weight of my arm is supported its fine...
I'm 55 used to play a lot of cricket (fast bowler) i packed in about 8 years ago & this year I've started Golf again. Been okay until June & i got shoulder impingement. Been to physio, the exercises haven't helped, i cannot sleep on my right side at all. Painkillers help a bit. Right now it feels like hot coals are inside my rotator cuff 😢 I've got to go back to the doctor as i can barely lift my arm without pain. Its horrible
I love you guys! I'm always sharing your videos on my page. I have many autoimmune plus I was a dancer and did a lot of sports so my body is a train wreck. Your so helpful love it ❤️🙂
i thought my arms and shoulders were normal i thoguht it was normal to have pain in shoulder all the time till i realized it wasnt and i prob have bursitis. Its a bruise like pain in the side of my shoulder going down to my bicep. That whole area hurts
I have pain in both shoulders it hurts when I have the fan on to cool down and after a while the pain in both shoulders start to hurt it I put a cover around my shoulders it really helps but can't pick objects up with out pain hope you have heard of this and can explain what it is thanks for your videos ❤❤
Wait.. so what is the treatment? I definitely have this. I have had my chiropractor work on it(both muscle work and adjustment) with small amount relief and then quickly returns to pain and discomfort.
Forgot to mention I also have a arthritis in my shoulder as well as tendonitis, arthritis, a tear in the tendon and a tear in the rotator cuff. Huge problem, it's now in BOTH arms for months. Have been able to drive for 5 months or even hold anything, not even a cup of coffee. Will these exercises help? 😭😭😭
sadly i think i have a rotator cuff injury, i crashed my bike and landed on my shoulder, inducing the first pain that hasnt stopped for well over 2 weeks now, and then did a bunch of heavy lifting around the house to help out my mother.
i have a lot of pain in front shoulder. physiotherapy, chiropractor nobody can diagnose it. it hurts when i push my shoulder forward, or when i put my arm behind my back. physiptherapy hasnt helped at all so far. any ideas?
@@silverfullbuster9177 i don’t know it came on slowly, It sped up when I was reaching up for exercise one day but that’s it. Physio say rotator cuff. Osteopath says ac joint. Chiropractor says it’s a problem with my neck. GP says venerable wear and tear. None seem to be able to fix it
I did all the test doesn’t hurt. But it hurts when I am hitting the heavy bag or doing squats and holding the bar. It’s not much pain but it’s a little sharp pain at the front shoulder. I’m thinking it’s just a light case of it.
I had bursitis at 24. An orthopaedic surgeon gave me a shot.of Bute (the pain went away almost immediately, stayed away and never came back) Until now at 75, I don't know if it's bursitis. I definitely have that pain under the bone at (almost) the end of my shoulder, but it also goes up my neck. I also have pain in outside middle of my shoulder blade (outside meaning towards the spine) If I walk my fingers straight up I arrive at the point of the pain in my neck I can lift things, even heavy things. The worst pain comes from washing the dishes. It's pretty much a circular or back and forth motion. The pain becomes excruciating to be point of tears. I THINK I got this doing the side plank in the McGill big 3. (Sorry Dr. McGill). Anyone? Thanks in advance.
Have had 5 surgeries on my shoulder already, now have another impingement, possibly number 6 might happen!!! Would I lose total strength all together??
None of these hurt my shoulder, I mainly get pain when doing lateral raises, even the first few degrees of the arc my arm makes start to hurt and just feel “unnatural”
I had the same thing. Hurts bad when I start to slightly raise my arm to the side and rotate. I can lift my arm above head and even do pull-ups. Did you end up healing? What was the process? Thanks
I have pain with all these and to varying degrees with both shoulders...sooo..I have either tendonitis or bursitis..I think I knew this..but these guys are entertaining..lol
I had rotator cuff surgery in 2021 as i had too much calcium in my shoulder..now all pain is coming back again... looks like its a shoulder impingement
I've had shoulder pain for two years and do the tests without any pain being I caused but there's a slight discomfort, shoulder feels tired more than sharp pain or a loss of ability to control
I’ve been “diagnosed” with Impinged Rotator cuff since 2017 but it was always hurting, now that it’s gotten a lot worse this year they say I have bursitis and they only give me pain medicine. 😭 I’m not okay
My shoulder has a pain that never goes away. Ive had xrays their is no damage, it doesnt hurt to use it in any way but theirs a pain on my shoulder that hurts ALL day everyday. Docs dont know what it can be? Any ideas? The last time i saw my doc. He said it was bad posture? But the pain has been with me for over a year now with no resolution 😢
I wa asked to tie a weight to the end of the stick for strenghtneing so I tied a 1 kilogram salt packet and i perform all the exercises you've demonstrated . However i feel that could be responsible for my lingering shoulder pain . Do you gentleman feel thats a bad idea? Would thank you for your advice.
What scan did u all have to diagnose this do u get Ur shoulder scan or upper arm I'm confused which area people have MRI on I've had ultrasound showed this tendonitis in both areas in shoulders and pain also in legs like this so I want to get a proper scan so can anyone inform me of which area is better shoulder or upper arm
I try to do a lot of rear deltoid exercises before you do any kind of prices in the gym, it helps greatly potentiate the muscles around the rotator cuff
Have yall ever heard of shoulder pain that's at random and sometimes it's the left and other times it's the right ? Never both. Can happen a few months apart at times. It can be random but also triggers when cold (the cold really makes it worse). And it's a dull ache that's very painful. Can feel it not only at shoulder joint but it's the whole area around the top of shoulder. It can just sufdenly go away within hours time or by next morning. I've gone to an urgent care and they tried to say it was related to ovarian cysts and never examined me...and the other wanted to see me when it was happening but I could never time it like that. It usually occurs late evening ish but can be during day at times. He thought it could be nerve pain. By guess any ideas? I know you can't diagnose 😅 but I'm curious if yall have heard anything like it before. I don't play sports but did cheerlead and my job can involve lifting. But nothing extreme
What if you can't get your hand to the opposite shoulder to do the test? Normally, I would be able to put my hand on the opposite shoulder, but I can't now. Same with the "lift off" test that you showed in another video. I am not able to get my hand on my back (starting position for the "lift off" test), but ordinarily I would be able to do that. I also cannot get my arm in a 90 degree angle with my hand downward (like the driving hand signal for stop). Instead, my arm stops when it's parallel to the ground. I went to urgent care, and they thought it might be dislocated, but the Xray came back normal. They sent me to an Orthopedic surgeon in their network (which I saw the Physician's Assistant). He said it was Bursitis and gave me a cortisone injection.I had 2 incidents. 6 days ago, I was in bed, and I reached above my head to pull my Purple pillow (has some weight to it). It felt like I had a slightly pulled muscle. 3 days ago, I was eating a cashew as I plopped down into my recliner (I might have been twisting too to pick up my laptop off the end table) during this motion. I felt a pop in the top of my shoulder. I do have an appt with my normal orthopedic surgeon next week. With all of these tests, I wonder what it means if you can't get into the starting position for the test.
I've had De Quervanes tendonitis in my wrist for 5 months now with excruciating pain. I had a cortisone injection in my wrist 4 wks ago. A couple days later I had a cortisone flare up, but not only in my wrist, my whole arm was flared up I couldn't move it at all. It was painful like it was broken. Four weeks later, which is now, I still have excruciating pain and can't hold anything or do anything. The doctors gave me a splint. I had an x-ray and ultrasound last week which showed tendonitis and bursitis in my arm. They also said the tendon had a big tear in it. Well that was it. They said physical therapy may help but I didn't get any exercises. It's too late sore to put my arm behind my back but I can do the massaging one with my arm straight out. I am in terrible pain for five months between my wrist and arm.
Shoulders are killing me they said I separated a ligament from bicep to shoulder...but it hurts bad like a tooth ache but in my shoulder ....and now the other shoulder is starting to feel it ....hurts so bad.
I watched this because the title suggests you're going to explain how to tell whether one has tendonitis or bursitis. I endured all the rambling and alternating mumbling/shouting only to hear you say at 7:30 that you can't tell if it's tendonitis or bursitis. Gee, thanks.
Took me five years to get a tendinitis bursitis diagnosis for my shoulder and this video did it in 5 minutes 😂

You are sounding good buddy!
In so much pain... Tendinitis in both.
I have it so bad. Need replacement in both shoulders
So sorry to hear that. Here’s a video that might help: ruclips.net/video/p1Ic7ArQgiA/видео.htmlsi=7gaFPMXyXGPOjX-u
Excellent video very clear and informative. I have those symptoms
Both my shoulders are screwed!
The most painful trigger is in the morning. My deltoid hurts but goes away as I di some movements and throughput the day.
sadly i think i have a rotator cuff injury, i crashed my bike and landed on my shoulder, inducing the first pain that hasnt stopped for well over 2 weeks now, and then did a bunch of heavy lifting around the house to help out my mother.
i have a lot of pain in front shoulder. physiotherapy, chiropractor nobody can diagnose it. it hurts when i push my shoulder forward, or when i put my arm behind my back. physiptherapy hasnt helped at all so far. any ideas?
How did it start
@@silverfullbuster9177 i don’t know it came on slowly, It sped up when I was reaching up for exercise one day but that’s it. Physio say rotator cuff. Osteopath says ac joint. Chiropractor says it’s a problem with my neck. GP says venerable wear and tear. None seem to be able to fix it
I did all the test doesn’t hurt. But it hurts when I am hitting the heavy bag or doing squats and holding the bar. It’s not much pain but it’s a little sharp pain at the front shoulder. I’m thinking it’s just a light case of it.
I had bursitis at 24. An orthopaedic surgeon gave me a shot.of Bute (the pain went away almost immediately, stayed away and never came back) Until now at 75, I don't know if it's bursitis. I definitely have that pain under the bone at (almost) the end of my shoulder, but it also goes up my neck. I also have pain in outside middle of my shoulder blade (outside meaning towards the spine) If I walk my fingers straight up I arrive at the point of the pain in my neck
I can lift things, even heavy things. The worst pain comes from washing the dishes. It's pretty much a circular or back and forth motion. The pain becomes excruciating to be point of tears. I THINK I got this doing the side plank in the McGill big 3. (Sorry Dr. McGill). Anyone? Thanks in advance.
I wish the steroid shots worked for me iv tried different kinds but no more.
Have had 5 surgeries on my shoulder already, now have another impingement, possibly number 6 might happen!!! Would I lose total strength all together??
None of these hurt my shoulder, I mainly get pain when doing lateral raises, even the first few degrees of the arc my arm makes start to hurt and just feel “unnatural”
I had the same thing. Hurts bad when I start to slightly raise my arm to the side and rotate. I can lift my arm above head and even do pull-ups. Did you end up healing? What was the process? Thanks
BTW, Hi Bob! I know you’re there, I miss you face and your humor!!🙂
I have pain with all these and to varying degrees with both shoulders...sooo..I have either tendonitis or bursitis..I think I knew this..but these guys are entertaining..lol
I had rotator cuff surgery in 2021 as i had too much calcium in my shoulder..now all pain is coming back again... looks like its a shoulder impingement
How long til therapy helps shoulder? Will physical therapy improve shoulder? 2 weeks 2 months live with?😮
What about I feel some pain in my collarbone and under my armpit?

I've had shoulder pain for two years and do the tests without any pain being I caused but there's a slight discomfort, shoulder feels tired more than sharp pain or a loss of ability to control
I’ve been “diagnosed” with Impinged Rotator cuff since 2017 but it was always hurting, now that it’s gotten a lot worse this year they say I have bursitis and they only give me pain medicine. 😭 I’m not okay
My shoulder has a pain that never goes away. Ive had xrays their is no damage, it doesnt hurt to use it in any way but theirs a pain on my shoulder that hurts ALL day everyday. Docs dont know what it can be? Any ideas? The last time i saw my doc. He said it was bad posture? But the pain has been with me for over a year now with no resolution 😢
I can’t even get my arm on my other shoulder. Ugh,
Pt dont help my pain makes it worse cant keep a job im big the only jobs i can get are physical ones i feel lost and depressed
How do I test if I've got it in both shoulders? UGH!
Thank u this is very helpful
I wa asked to tie a weight to the end of the stick for strenghtneing so I tied a 1 kilogram salt packet and i perform all the exercises you've demonstrated . However i feel that could be responsible for my lingering shoulder pain . Do you gentleman feel thats a bad idea? Would thank you for your advice.
What if you cross your arm over, lift your elbow no pain, but if you add resistance when trying to lift the elbow you feel pain?
What scan did u all have to diagnose this do u get Ur shoulder scan or upper arm I'm confused which area people have MRI on I've had ultrasound showed this tendonitis in both areas in shoulders and pain also in legs like this so I want to get a proper scan so can anyone inform me of which area is better shoulder or upper arm
I keep getting a throbbing sensation just a bit further down from my Shoulder.
ive been suffering with this bs for almost 3 months now!!
8 years.
Me too. Damn face mask.., I couldn't see my feet and I fell down the stairs and landed on my shoulder.
Ooh yes I have it it’s so painful ,,
Can you speak about The Elbow tendonits bursts, I have that in my left elbow and I stopped training because of it...please help!!
Did u ever heal and how ?
I didn't feel pain during the test exercises,but I feel the pain when working my chest at the gym
I try to do a lot of rear deltoid exercises before you do any kind of prices in the gym, it helps greatly potentiate the muscles around the rotator cuff
Have yall ever heard of shoulder pain that's at random and sometimes it's the left and other times it's the right ? Never both. Can happen a few months apart at times. It can be random but also triggers when cold (the cold really makes it worse). And it's a dull ache that's very painful. Can feel it not only at shoulder joint but it's the whole area around the top of shoulder. It can just sufdenly go away within hours time or by next morning. I've gone to an urgent care and they tried to say it was related to ovarian cysts and never examined me...and the other wanted to see me when it was happening but I could never time it like that. It usually occurs late evening ish but can be during day at times. He thought it could be nerve pain. By guess any ideas? I know you can't diagnose 😅 but I'm curious if yall have heard anything like it before. I don't play sports but did cheerlead and my job can involve lifting. But nothing extreme
What if you can't get your hand to the opposite shoulder to do the test? Normally, I would be able to put my hand on the opposite shoulder, but I can't now. Same with the "lift off" test that you showed in another video. I am not able to get my hand on my back (starting position for the "lift off" test), but ordinarily I would be able to do that. I also cannot get my arm in a 90 degree angle with my hand downward (like the driving hand signal for stop). Instead, my arm stops when it's parallel to the ground. I went to urgent care, and they thought it might be dislocated, but the Xray came back normal. They sent me to an Orthopedic surgeon in their network (which I saw the Physician's Assistant). He said it was Bursitis and gave me a cortisone injection.I had 2 incidents. 6 days ago, I was in bed, and I reached above my head to pull my Purple pillow (has some weight to it). It felt like I had a slightly pulled muscle. 3 days ago, I was eating a cashew as I plopped down into my recliner (I might have been twisting too to pick up my laptop off the end table) during this motion. I felt a pop in the top of my shoulder. I do have an appt with my normal orthopedic surgeon next week. With all of these tests, I wonder what it means if you can't get into the starting position for the test.
~You guys are the best.
I've had De Quervanes tendonitis in my wrist for 5 months now with excruciating pain. I had a cortisone injection in my wrist 4 wks ago. A couple days later I had a cortisone flare up, but not only in my wrist, my whole arm was flared up I couldn't move it at all. It was painful like it was broken. Four weeks later, which is now, I still have excruciating pain and can't hold anything or do anything. The doctors gave me a splint. I had an x-ray and ultrasound last week which showed tendonitis and bursitis in my arm. They also said the tendon had a big tear in it. Well that was it. They said physical therapy may help but I didn't get any exercises. It's too late sore to put my arm behind my back but I can do the massaging one with my arm straight out. I am in terrible pain for five months between my wrist and arm.
Nerve run to my shoulder to elbow after my arm move i don’t now iam worried
Thats exactly what i am experiening but my arm is swollen too
Going for x ray. I’m in real PAIN
I was told that I have bursitis antenna the night is I don't know so a SLAP tear and I also have a bone spur all in my right shoulder
Bob and Brad I’m 20yrs old and when I walk my back slightly cracks (middle left/lower left) what do I do; please help.
Also when lift my left leg I can’t lift it up slowing/smoothly I just end up going fast/jumpy.
Shoulders are killing me they said I separated a ligament from bicep to shoulder...but it hurts bad like a tooth ache but in my shoulder ....and now the other shoulder is starting to feel it ....hurts so bad.
just having my are hang it hurts i cant even do that constant pain
I was just diagnosed with this today the pain was horrible had to get a cortisone shot
I watched this because the title suggests you're going to explain how to tell whether one has tendonitis or bursitis. I endured all the rambling and alternating mumbling/shouting only to hear you say at 7:30 that you can't tell if it's tendonitis or bursitis. Gee, thanks.
I have been in pain since last year, I still can’t move my right shoulder😭
