Today I had my first physical therapy. The therapist basically just moved my arm around. Since I haven’t moved it for the last four weeks, it is pretty sore after this tiny bit of movement. I will have shoulder therapy three times a week.

The therapist gave me the sheet with four exercises, and I’m to do these exercises three times today for the next week. My arm and shoulder area has some swelling now after the physical therapy. I have been using ice and that helps a little.

I would recommend taking a pain pill or some ibuprofen before your physical therapy if you ever need to have it.
