Muscles that are used when you hold your neck and your head upright rather than forward are your posterior shoulder or upper back muscles. The muscles are actually comprised of free upper back and posterior deltoids. Shoulder pain could be caused by performing shoulder workouts and by simply standing straight and relaxed for a long period. Exercising that way could also lead to the problem.
If you have been experiencing upper back as well as shoulder pains for many months now, you might also experience a frozen shoulder. You should notice that your body could be actually asking for a dialogue about something that it does not care for. You should take it as a queue to make a review of the ergonomics of your own workspace. Perhaps, you could also need a change in diet, jobs, lifestyle, and several deeper work.
Your running posture could also be a cause of shoulder pain. When running, your arms should be moving in synchrony with your legs. You should have your chest held up, your shoulders relaxed, and your head backwards. When there is just too much rotation during shoulder movements, there could be more stress applied to the shoulders, leading to shoulder pain.
When carrying heavy items, backpacks, or purses, you could also incur shoulder pain. This is especially true if you are carrying the weight to a side of your body. Expect shoulder and neck pain to occur afterwards. To remedy this situation or avoid shoulder pain, decide to use smaller or lighter purse. Make it or a backpack lighter or have wide straps to make sure carrying it would be made more evenly on the shoulders.
Are you bogged by shoulder pains? Aside from addressing the possible causes, you could opt for several techniques or methods in relieving shoulder discomfort.
Try alternating the purse, bag on your shoulder to the other. Because we are so used to doing things the same way all the time it may be a little bit difficult to make the change as it takes time. Because our body is used to 'compensate' for any imbalance, to move the 'bag' to the other shoulder does take time. It will feel strange and it is easier NOT to make the change, it takes effort and is it really worth it?
Well the answer is yes! It does take effort, and if we don't make the change and continue the the same way it could lead to more serious complaint.
