Question: Currently I'm in treatment for scapula/shoulder pain had laser therapy (8 different locations laser therapy in shoulder) & I'm experiencing a road rash internal feeling in the soft tissue underneath the armpit what can ease this uncomfortable feeling? Already taking muscle spasm meds, cold packs, electrode therapy with a low frequency for pain. 2 years ago I suffered from a chest air bag deployment.
Brief Answer:
Do a hot compress.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The feeling like a road rash in the soft tissue can be relieved by doing a hot compress in the area. For this you can use a towel dipped in hot water and sealed in a zip lock bag. Do the hot compress for at least 15 minutes three times a day. Give adequate rest to the arm and continue with the medicines prescribed to you.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
