idk wtf I did but I woke up 2 days ago with this pain in my shoulder right inside where the shoulder itself meets my chest and man it hurts. It’s so bad in the morning I can’t lift my arm over my head. But as the day goes on (and taking some nsaids) it lessens a bit.

What did I do to myself?

    I don’t know how old you are but as you get older odd, inexplicable pains are more common. I’m in late middle age. Yesterday was a first for me. When I yawned wrong - I got a sharp unpleasant pain in my the lower front part of my neck. What the fuck - from yawning wrong? I felt like I’d imagine I’d feel if I was in a street fight and a dirty fighter used a trick he loved like smashing a knuckle into my neck. Incredible, sudden pain.

    For the first few seconds I thought it was funny. Aches and pains - what can you do? But after 5 to 10 seconds I started to worry I might have to go the emergency room. The pain didn’t lessen at all and and my neck felt wrong. What the fuck - this is not funny. I started walking around the room to try to relax because that’s all I could do. After ~20 seconds (it felt like 20 minutes) the pain finally started to go away. And then ~60 seconds later all I had was a tiny soreness.
