23M Injured, Advice Needed

Hey everyone. I’m a 23 M and I was in Mexico for vacation about 3 weeks ago. Unfortunately, during a game of water polo, I stretched my arm to reach for the ball and I hyperextended it pretty far and was in extreme pain after. It felt as if my shoulder locked in the moment (like a very bad cramp) I went to the clinic there for an x ray to make sure it wasn’t a dislocation and the x ray was completely clear. I never lost ROM or anything, it was just super sore and stiff and hurt when moved.

Fast forward to now, I have full ROM but just have these sharp pains at certain stretches. I’ve been doing some PT exercises I see on YouTube and was even able to hit some arms in the gym and did lat raises yesterday with no problem.

I would love to hear any and all insight or advice on any injuries you guys had that’s similar and what you did to speed up the recovery process. I am an avid gym rat who lifted daily and am really bummed that I have to rehab shoulder
