Many of you have likely experienced that flustering moment of thinking, βOh, why is it doing this?β, accompanied by a sharp, tingling pain every time you lift your arm to put on clothes or try to comb your hair. This frustrating feeling, as if your shoulder no longer belongs to you, is truly distressing, isnβt it?
