question: Hello Doctor, I jerked my arm behind me very suddenly and I seemed to pull something , I was in the shower at the time and I thought it would get better after a few days, that was Nine Years ago this month. I m on a lot of tablets LYRICA 100mg three times a day and Tramidol 1to be taken 4 times a day to stop it flaring up. I can t say it is hard work or the weather that causes the pain to start but it is very intense when it does start. I do find that heat helps a lot any draft can start it off. Most importantly if I press my thumb against my forefinger the pain under my arm is where it hurts and that is the site that I get the Cortisone Injecting. Is there any thing else I can do or am I going to have this forever Regards Linda Cooney
