@@helicart The subscapularis muscle reduces anterior translation of the humeral head. When weak, excessive anterior humeral head translation can cause anterior impingement underneath the subacromial arch leading to bursitis. This is one way in which subscapularis strengthening can help.
Can't be ticklish with this one, ha, but quick question, I believe I've released some muscles on the front part of my shoulder around The Coracoid Bone. I started doing some shoulder exercises for abduction and scapula retraction, then I tried doing a chest opener stretch where I'm stretching my serratus anterior and pecs minor/major while stretching in external rotation of my arm. After I did this motion, I sort of felt a nagging sore pain/discomfort I've never really felt before, that made me want to gag and scream literally ha, around my left blade area and a little around the right one. Could I have activated or released this muscle?
Hi Jerry. Sorry for the delayed reply. I'm wicked behind on my emails. You gotta be careful with chest openers as they can produce some posterior impingement of the glenohumeral joint that will cause pain at the back of the shoulder.
@@DjJoeee Thanks for thinking of me. I sold my PT practice at the end of 2020 dead smack in the middle of COVID and just moved to North Carolina!! So I've been out of the mix for a while. Doing construction on new house. I'll hopefully be back soon!!
