ok it has been over a month now.....
I wanted to follow up and say that it has been over a month now, since my daughter has played softball. I have not let her pitch or throw since she has hurt her arm. she has been doing stretches (that the chiropractor and sports doctor recommended, but no throwing). She has no pain at all just stretching or anything. Saturday, we had her throw some to see if her arm was better. she gradually warmed up her arm very slowly. We threw for about 5 minutes without any pain, but after 5 minutes she felt the sharp pain. The pain is located on the pectoral muscle, really more on the chest area rather than the shoulder. It is now starting to concern me because a pulled muscle should have healed by now. I am going to call the sports medicine Doctor tomorrow and see if we can schedule an MRI. Has anyone been through this? Any advise for a concerned mom? thanks
