Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I seem to have a soft mushy feeling bubble on the top, backside of my shoulder. I have a little pain with it like I ve been bruised beside it. I m a 48 year female. I exercise by swimming for a good hour twice a week and power walk 5 miles / 7km for an hour 4 days a week. I do pump my arms when I walk for cardio. I d like your opinion. Thanks, Debbie
Your symptoms are suggestive of local musculo-skeletal inflammation. Is the pain triggered by shoulder movements? This would be another argument in favor of musculo-skeletal inflammation. Otherwise, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and a shoulder X-ray study.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
