Subscapularis Muscle - Most Misdiagnosed Cause to Neck/Midback Pain & Frozen Shoulder (Dr Mandell)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 вер 2024
- The subscapularis is a very powerful muscle that rotates the arm inwards and is part of the rotator cuff group of muscles. This muscle is commonly involved with most neck, shoulder, and midback conditions. Contraction and shortening of the subscapularis is commonly seen in forward head posture and rounded shoulders.
Alot of doctors are lazy and just send you off to get a ct or mri and they tell you " you have arthritis " and tell you to take anti-inflammatory medz ...this man is really great as he gets to the root cause of the problem ( what most doctors are not doing) and this man actually cares so thank you very much from the Conscious Therapist 🕉♾️💞✨️💫☯️⚛️
Give this man a nobel price!
Amen!
God please Bless him! Thank You.
Dr Mandell is the best in the world! No medicine!!!
Stretches start 10:48. This May be the most helpful video for physical health on UA-cam. I found this video after getting a massage this evening and feeling the most pain in my pec area. This video explains why I’ve felt the way I have. Just did the stretches and they’re amazing, already feeling better
Thanks
Thanks
How are you now?
Thanks , stay blessed.One love.
@@eTheRealDeal, are you still doing these stretches?
Thank you so much for sharing this information. Have fibromayalgia an I pulled my subcapularis. In 17 years of therapy, you are the first person to recognize what is going on! I had figured out a lot of what you talked about on my own. You just confirmed another layer of focus for my healing. Praise God! Bless you, Dr. Mandel!
Brilliant, you have a special talent for teaching and explaining issues better than any of the other 'millions' of therapists I've watched before. You have helped me so much. Appreciate your help!!
The info you displayed clarifies my ongoing painful, tingling, and numbness dilemma of the last 2 years. Even the odd pain on the side of my right ribcage.
Thank you, sir!
Same here. god bless him
Dude I’ve had shoulder pain and the weirdest pain /tightness on my lower right rib area that I’ve been stretching for a year with no relief . This post caught my attention 😮
Thank you doc, you answered all my questions. I'm sharing this with my MIL who suffers terribly with bad posture, spinal stenosis, neck pains that run down her arms. I try to work with her to do these exercises because I know these will help. Thanks for being here for us. You've helped me so much. You're appreciated. Be well, stay safe.
I love your videos. I,ve had chronic shoulder and arm pain for nearly 2 years and after a visit to a good physio who mentioned scalene muscles, I came across your site and everything is making sense to all the pain that I have been experiencing for all this time so I am going to try all your exercises and see what improvements I find. Thank you for such informative videos.
Dr. Mandell...you've helped me so much with the subscapularis issue. A huge thank you!!
This video will save you £££££, time and a whole lot of stress.
I cannot believe how accurate this video is. Unbelievable. Thank you so much I have been doing these stretches daily for 2 weeks.
After 3 years the pain has gone. 🙏
Doc, you are the savior of my LIFE. Those videos are made for me!!!!!!!!!!!!
for everyone hes always taking the right approach not what all doctors out there are doing
Same here!
100% Agreed
Thanks for this informative video.I am suffering from frozen shoulder n tendonitis past 9 months .I am taking physiotherapy but not much relief.now the pain goes from my neck till center of my back. I think this video you have described all the symptoms which I am going through...hope it helps. God bless u
You are the first doc who could diagnose this condition much less bring relief to my neck and shoulders. Bless you!
Thank you! I love all your videos but this one in particular changed my life! The subscap muscle and the way Ive slept since I was a child was the key to all my back problems. For the first time I am pain free and it is thanks to you and your videos. God bless.
That's what you call a real doctor That cares about people really appreciate everything you do and God will bless you for that..
Dr. Mandell, I'm a subscriber and have studied many of your videos to successfully overcome various aches and pains. Thanks to you I haven't had a migraine since December, not even a headache and this has been an issue for me since childhood... several migraines per month. Not anymore. My neck is much stronger now. It's that rhomboid, forward head posture thing. Now I keep an 18" stretch band in front of my laptop and regularly pick it up to do the outward stretches along with all the correct positioning. I'm now overcoming a shoulder problem and find today's video pointing out those scaps... the places I'm bound up. Door stretching hurts but I'm able to do alot more than I could a few months ago. Thanks for the wonderful helps. ~ Ooh, and fun hearing how many countries are logging in to hear you. Nice of you to acknowledge them and bring us all together. Greetings to the world from a peaceful place in the U.S. ~ namaste :)
Blessings to you Vicky😊
Vicky Barton: me too. I try to get friends and family to watch but they do t take the time often!
Hi Vicky, it’s great to know that you overcame migraines and headaches! Being a fellow migraneur, I wanted to ask what all steps did you take which helped you with getting rid of migraines. I have suffered all my life and continue to have several episodes each month. It would be really helpful if you could share a few key things which helped you. God bless!
Doc, I recently woke up with a sore neck and 3 weeks later my head's forward, can't turn at all, bobble head because holding chin and head up is impossible. I started with chiropractor and massage therapist. Both are perplexed at how terrible my neck &shoulders muscles are tight, knotted and spasming continuously. They can't believe it's only been a month since this started. I've had a double mastectomy and lattimus dorsi breast reconstruction surgery (5 yrs) followed by 12 weeks of radiation, and both professionals are perplexed by how that may be contributimg to the rapid issues I'm suffering.
Thank you. I tore subscapularis years ago. No doctor or chiro ever gave me exercises for the resulting problems. I have been working with your other stretches, too. These are excellent. I can feel the blood and energy returning to those areas I worked on. WoW! That is great!
Brilliant as always...whenever I have a troubling patient I look for your videos.
Feeling so much better by watching and just dabbling with the stretches. I am very positive about helping myself get better and incorporating these stretches daily.
I see you. This is the best video yet. I've needed this all my life, I think. When you're tall, everything is made for shorter people. We end up slouching. Wish I knew this years ago. Thank you
Hi! I really appreciate your video! I’ve been dealing with the this problem for over 10 years. Doctors and specialist have never been able to diagnose me. Shoulder is pretty severe to the point of popping with every movement. Neck is stiff as well. This explains everything wrong with me!! Thank you!
Had no real pain, more of uncomfortable ache/tightness feeling on the side of chest most days. So, immediately did the easiest one, and I just love how that hands clasps, shoulder stretch gave instant relieve! Amazing explanation on how these muscles work and the effects it has, thank you Dr Mandell!
Bless your soul! Your videos have been Extremely useful to relive my neck pain and rotator cuff pain
YES! I broke My left wrist and thought the right shoulder and arm pain was due to over using right arm. This video explains exactly what's wrong with me. I was in tears with the pain coming right down to my wrist, and I couldn't understand why. Thank you so much. 💖
You posted this video 6 yrs ago, I wish I would have seen it then. You have no idea how much money I’ve spent going to the chiropractor, dry needling, ER for chest and neck pain. Oh my gosh!!! I’m so glad I’m seeing this video now. Thank you! ❤
Thank you so much doc!!! I love sleeping on my side and do suffer from a desktop bound day job. You are saving me from weeks of acute pain! May god bless you!!!
Dr Mandell, My wife and I have had some shoulder problems and found a video that help us both. Later it seemed we both had more problems, until I found yours. Just wanted to tell you how thankful we. Sincerely, Bud and Linda
I do have bad posture, told by friends. This was amazing!!! Thank you so much!!
Nice one. Suffering so much on my right side. Can't thank you enough. God bless you
We need more live streams Dr. Mandell! I actually enjoy these 20 plus minute videos
This is a great video, the best I’ve seen. The exercises work, my shoulder and arms feel good. Thank you
hi, doc! you are doing a great job with these explanations. i have been actively strainghtening my muscles one by one for an year now because of a high level of pain from shoulder pain, kneck pain and a biiiiig deviation in my posture from sitting on the chair. I couldn't lift my arm over 90 degrees at some point for a long time. I did a lot of your romboid exercises, helped a lot with strenthening. Posture exercises, helped a lot with pain. And now I found this video about the subscapularis. It explains most of the things that i've been feeling good with without knowing the sourse. hopefully this will mark the spot. I'll try to check back in with a comment to say if it worked and in what way. You are a huge help and making a big positive impact on our lives.
Thank you very much for all your videos, you are doing a great job to help thousands of people.
A big-big thank you dear doctor Allan Mandel. You are a fantastic doctor full of knowledge & great desire to help people. And you do it peefectly well. Be blessed. Be healthy & very happy.
Thank you so much Dr for all your kindness and love and support and you are so sweet and smart I am 82 in FLA in pain God bless you alsooooo 🌷♥️😊 Glenda make it a great day !!
Thank you Dr. I am in recovery and can’t take pain medicine. Your videos are keeping me pain free. Thanks
Just to say this ... You are a blessing...I experienced 1 1/2 years ago allot of physical skeleton ailments due to sitting at a laptop to complete 2 years of college in 8 months which intels bout 7 straight hours of sitting 6 days a week. The saying Lil ole lady from Pasadena... She walks hitched over with a cane but many don't know the pain she endures... That has been me. You have helped me to understand the problems from incorrect posture and resolved most of my problems. I'm not 100% yet but in the road to recovery. Working on upper body posture and studying the lower hip area. A long process from injuries due to computer to knee injury to sciatic to pinch nerve. Has not been easy for this 65 yr woman. You are my angel and you have given me hope and courage for my recovery program. Bless you 💜
Stumbled upon this video when searching for posture improvement advice, made myself sit and watch through all the chat distraction, it paid off. Stretched subscapularis by putting my elbow on a horizontal bar, bringing my hand behind another bar above it, using it as a stopper, and started tipping my body forward thus stretching the muscle by rotating body while the arm is immobile. Today is the first time in a long time I woke up without pain in shoulder and neck. A sensation hard to believe in. Thank you doc, i'll be sure to start watching all your videos now.
When I did the arm behind the back and tried moving my hand away from my back it reproduced the shoulder area pain I've been having for quite some time. I thought it was associated more with my cervical problems and some of my pain has gotten better following my ACDF surgery for spinal cord compression, BUT now I know for sure that sitting on the computer/phone is what is causing it due to poor positioning and posture AND weak vs. tight muscles. I was about to go back to my doctor to see how to proceed, but now I feel confident waiting until my recheck with my orthopedic surgeon in March. I know my PCP will just send me to PT anyway and I needed more direct exercises to address this specific problem. Thank you so much for making these videos and allowing them to be viewed freely! Obviously, if I have any concerning symptoms I will alert my doctor.
I wish I had found you in 2014. I am so grateful; thank you so, so much!
Thank you! You Have opened my eyes in many ways, I was suspecting this issue for a long time , having carpal tunnel issues in both hands but also suffering from tightness in peck and subscapularis and my rhomboid are in bad shape due to desk position work... I could go on with issues but main point is that this video blew my mind!!!!!!!!!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
This is really helpful information. It has definitely been a missing piece of the puzzle for me on my journey of shoulder recovery. Thank you for explaining it so thoroughly.
Great explanation I'm an 84yr old male had trouble with this all my life thanks.
Hey Doctor, thank you so much you are awesome !! you have no idea how you are helping me. You know exactly what I am looking for in my neck and back problems
Awesome videos Doc. I just discovered dry needling few months ago and how quickly it releases tight muscles. I think you should make a video on that and let people know how they can get rid of knots in seconds
I had dry needling at a medical centre two weeks ago for frozen shoulder and they punctured my lung - be careful
@@raia9 they punctured your lung?!
I’ve had frozen shoulder in both shoulders so this is very helpful to me.
Your face keeps giving me hope .. thanks for being there
I am Ali from Iraq .. Thank you very much, Doctor, and I hope that it will be a translation in Arabic because we hardly understand the English language .. I repeat my thanks to you, my friend, you are really a blessing from God
مرحبا محتاج الترجمه بعد ولا لا؟ بامكاني اترجم لك
You are a godsend and you have no idea how much you've been helping me. Thank you so much for posting all these amazing videos at no cost to us.
What a gem, great video! Very informative
I always thought I had TOS (thoraxic outlet syndrom) regarding my neck/shoulder pain.
This video / the massage @13:36 showed me wrong... even after few pressures on that point under the arm helped me a lot.
THANK YOU for this content.
Exactly my case. I got prolotherapy thinking TOS. All kinds of diagnostics. But the odd thing about all my symptoms was the bicep ache that traveled to my scapula and the swelling and pain under the arm when it flares up
One of the top 5, IF NOT TOP/BEST videos on UA-cam! Seriously, this video, combined with your Magnesium video would save the US BILLIONS of dollars in health care costs and ADD TRILLIONS to our nation's productivity. This video, and you Dr., could theoretically "save" humanity, deer don't have cancer, deer don't have doctors, bc deer, and ALL other animals use their bodies and eat the way nature intended. The problem... this video, could literally put millions of doctors, Rx drug companies, and many others without a job. Do doctors really not know that sitting at a computer is killing us, or do their medical schools think they'll be out of work if they spend more than an afternoon discussing preventative Medicine? Ie magnesium supplementation, stretching chest, strengthening rotator cuff, rhomboids, and anterior flexors, ALL OF WHICH CAN BE DONE FROM HOME WITH A $20 resistance band, a towel, and a doorway?
Great comments👍🏻
Daniel Stratton your so right , he's helped me so much
Incredible Doctor! Incredible and miraculous, yet thoroughly logical. Thank you so much, Dr Mandel ❣️
doctor you simply pick up issues related to back pain which are very common these days . I pray God bless you ..and you keep helping all of us who suffer from pain....Rajeev from delhi INDIA .
Very well explained.
Love to see your videos
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm in physical therapy now and they have been focusing on my supraspinatus. I believe this is my answer and will discuss at my next visit, diplomatically so I don't offend.
dr alan thanks for your time the ive been going crazy with pain from shoulder joint going in to my elbow.i found you on you tube i feel down in the dumps with this constant ache.and tears. BLESS YOU for your time and passion . jill england
You are saving my life mentally and physically. The mental portion of physical issues can be more devastating, learning that myself.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge your a real true Dr. not just lining your pocket. Actually really cares and heals others me included. We love you back !!! Sincere thanks t o you Dr,
Oh doc i miss this chat i was celebrating my grandson bday very sorry but you said what i need it i am so grateful ❤️
I've spent thousands of benefit money on massage. A new therapist filled in and hit my subscap. Never felt more sustained relief. No doubt in my mind my ongoing pain is caused by posture, tight pecs and subscap. I kept working my external rotators (Infra and supraspinatus). But I'm 90% convinced its the subscap (internal rotator). Looking forward to working on this. Thanks for the vid!!
Its so exciting to me to hear the diff countries that viewers are from. It says volumes of how GREAT doc is. God bless him
I am an LMT and I often share your videos with my clients as homework. If I show them the stretches myself when they come in for massage treatment I know that they're never going to remember them or do them so if I text them these videos and tell them these are the stretches that they need to be doing they are more likely to do them and to remember them. The compliant ones I see such a difference when they come in for their follow-up massages. I watch all your videos about vitamins nutrients foods as well and have use them to help change my eating habits and my life and have lost 30 lb in about six weeks by changing the foods that I eat and the supplements that I use. Thank you for all the informative advice that has helped me and thank you for making my job much easier by helping my clients and making me look like a miracle worker LOL. I would love to see you do a video specifically for hairdressers. I work with many of these people and see so many of these problems with the position that they have their arms in all day long. Just a thought. Again thank you so much for the great informed information then I am able to pass along to my people and help with their problems
You're better than my local Dr.! I love your videos.
I have to say I am appreciative of your videos because they have helped me greatly over the past year or so with my rotator cuff injury and made me more aware of things I had no idea about before. I am currently fighting to find a good chiroprator or massage therapist to help me because I have very limited external rotation on my left shoulder and your videos help me in the mean time. Thank you
I have search this video for 1 year or more. This is exactly point of all my pain, neck back and chest. I will try this exercises stretches.
Hi doc Ayaz From Pakistan
following ur lectures and trying to overcome my left shoulder to work good God Bless You U r great mentor
You are truly outstanding! So much I have learned from your videos. At work I spend so much time at a desk and I also sleep in a position that causes my posture to curve inwards. I literally was doing the exercise while watching this video. thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Blessings to you
I’m so happy to have found your videos. So much pain and had surgery in November. Following all videos now!
You are the guy doc, thank you for sharing this awesome video.It helped me to resolve my chronic pain in the neck and back.Thank you
I've spent 15 years sitting at the computer squeezing my shoulder blades all the time (as generally advertised to maintain good posture) but what that actually did is that it caused my subscapularis muscle to stay locked and contracted all the time. Also I had strong rhomboid muscles and lose chest muscles which suppose to give you the perfect posture(atleast i thought so), yet I had shoulder imbalance and pain in the chest/arm. So what did the miracle to me is stretching that subscapularis muscle. I am not a doctor, but through years of suffering and trial and error I have finally found the key to good health: Having strong muscles is pointless if they are not elongated/stretched/loose. So make sure to stretch every muscle you can think off and then strengthen it and you will be living pain free life. That's my share of insight , hope you all have a nice day :)
Thank You Dr
Mandelll... Getting Healthier one video at a time..

I had reached a point where I could barely walk...thank you from my Heart...'bless yer cotton sox'
I have been waiting for this chat!!! Sorry I missed it! Currently 2 weeks post op arthroscopic capsule release for frozen shoulder!
I fail at the 'Lift Off' test. This condition has developed suddenly one day about three months ago. There are hundreds of videos about the condition and I have seen them all. This video that I found this evening seems to be the best yet. Thanks Dr. Mandell.
Thank you Dr.Mandell,God bless,from Lourdes in the Philippines.

Lower neck and upper shoulder terrible pain. Will give you feedback soon. You are an angel.

Thank you Dr. Mandell, excellent, I am a practicing L.C.M.T. and often times I become very frustrated when trying to help my clients and they feel release for about a day or so and it returns. This will help some of my clients that suffer with frozen shoulder. P.T. compliments massage always. Thanks much!
