when i circle my shoulder or even just move it back, i hear pops, cracks, grinding, all sorts of loud noises. there is some dull pain and progressively throughout the day it gets worse. when i move my shoulder back, a rib feels like it gets stuck and i have to push my shoulder down to release it
Hi, I am getting your problem. As you written, there is some sound during shoulder movement so do not need to worry, shoulder is a ball and socket joint, bone head moves in many directions while u move it in a circle. Muscle those surrounding around the joints, restrict the motion and hold the bone to get displaced. Your ribs are getting stuck might be due to shoulder blade mule tightness. Just go for some general shoulder and upper back stretching. It will help you. If condition not get improve, consult orthopedics. I hope you this will help you. Good luck
