 [ Symptoms ] physical therapy exercises for a rotator cuff injury i have diagnosed myself with a rotator cuff injury i have been resting it for about 3 4 months now hoping it would start feeling better but it has not it does not bother me in most day to day activities mostly when showering when i reach for my other arm to wash it and i can not sleep very well on my right side i am wondering if someone could recommend some exercises i could do to strengthen my shoulder thanks [ Disease ] there is a reason but your doctor has apparently not done a thorough diagnostic work up to find the cause while drinking water is always advisable but if this has been your only intervention and it is not working it is time for you to return to see your doctor again there are sooooo many reasons to account for your blacking out and the lack of personal medical information that it would be impossible to make that patient specific determination over the internet
