I'd like to get some weight training advice from others who may have suffered from shoulder calcific tendinitis.
So I've just had my second recurrence of this in the space of only 4 years. Both times treated successfully (well the pain at least) with a cortisone shot but I just want to avoid a third recurrence.
I do upper body workouts 3 times a week using dumbbells and barbells. After my first bout, my doctor told me to stop doing lateral raises and when I do dumbbell overhead presses, to use a neutral grip because that'll cause less wear and tear on my shoulders. Anyway, last week saw it come back.
I'd like to hear from people who do weights who have experienced shoulder calcific tendinitis and successfully modified their workouts to avoid any recurrences. What did you add or what have you stopped doing to prevent it from coming back?
Honestly, the pain was so severe both times, it literally made me sick to my stomach. I just don't want it ever coming back but I really want to continue weight training. TIA for any advice.
