To be honest, I don't know. About two weeks ago, I woke up with a pain in my left side, like muscle or nerve pain, that would shoot down my leg and make it hard to walk or sit. Find myself slouching a lot.
Then, a week ago, I woke up and my left arm had a really bad pain, couldn't move it backwards without pain shooting up towards my ear. Wednesday night, I was at work, and it was so bad and I had the feeling it was dislocated or something... so I went to a bathroom stall and basically grabbed hold of one of the ADA bars and yanked it into place. Still sore, though, but at least I have mobility.
Doctor is always amused at my 'home remedies' and that I seem to manage them somewhat successfully. No idea how this all happened, but basically both he and Mark think I just overworked hefting books and boxes of books and carts of books around, pulled a muscle, overcompensated with my arm or slept on it wrong, and popped it out, then got it back in, but it's going to hurt for a bit.
However, I'm supposed to contact him if it goes a week or so without getting better. (He did do something, pushed on my back, that actually really helped the pain in my side; Jake has suggested visiting a chiropractor (sp)
Took almost two days to get the prescription filled because of an allergy alert that came up on the computers at Walgreens and then their inability to check their messages to see the doctor had okayed it (he had actually written something about it on the prescription form).
