Well, something went wrong.

Was just carrying some trash out from the building I work at...and suddenly felt like something had stabbed me in my right shoulder. After that I figured it was cool but then I went and simply opened a door with my right arm and felt the same pain, except a good deal worse. Guess I'm out of the gym for a few weeks...

OUCH! I feel your pain. Joint injuries can be a pain in the ________ <-fill in the blank. Best of luck on your recuperation.

Ditto. Sorry to hear about that man. Perhaps it was just a fluke and you just have a pinched nerve? I hope it's only minor and that you can get back soon.

Wasn't a joint so much as a muscle tearing in the area around my right shoulder-blade. I'll probably be back in a week or three, still irritating because it happened in a spot that basically lays me off from all weights since I wont be able to move anything heavy without putting some kind of stress on that area.

Sounds like either a minor rip in muscle fibre somewhere or like has been said a nerve trapped between muscle fibres depends on the type of pain (i.e. short bursts...) as to what it could be, either way though I don't think you'll be out of lifting for very long.

Its just short jabs of pain whenever I put stress on the area. I mean they'd be longer but when I feel them I stop doing whatever caused it

I don't think I'll be out for more than a few weeks at most, hasn't seemed to get much better since it happened, but its hard to tell.

Join the club!!! I got bruised ribs and they are a pain in the 'backside'

Hope you get back in the game quickly. Even though I've been lifting only since March, I feel guilty when I miss a workout. It's seems so difficult to get back in a routine once you break it. Hope it gets better quickly.

Went back in today for the first time in about 2.5 weeks. I was still having trouble a few days ago and I've been busy so I put it off for a bit, but everything went pretty good today. Started with weights about 10-20 lbs lower than normal, my endurance seems pretty shot right now. Probably be back to normal in a week or two though, just hope I don't accidentally re-injure myself.
