Re: Hi everyone!

<t>I think you should give it a try. I have an injury and used to play the trumpet. I only needed one hand to play but it did affect the neck more than anything as well. I always played a bit crooked but I was able to play. <br/> <br/> I am now trying to teach myself how to play the guitar. It's a l...

Re: Neck/shoulder pain

<t>Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it. <br/> <br/> It's amazing to me that I feel great in the mornings and then by mid afternoon I am just hurting. I'm sure it is because I do the same movements and to be honest I have been slacking a bit on my stretches. <br/> <br/> I was getting a deep ...

Re: Chewing nails

<t>There used to be a product from Sally Hansen you can get it at a drug store. It is supposed to help in biting nails. <br/> <br/> I too used to bite my nails...(well, I still have a few I can't seem to give up on). I know it sounds strange but it is such a bad habit and many people with an injury ...

Neck/shoulder pain

<t>Well this question probably isn't out of the norm. <br/> <br/> I was just curious, I have been busy with work, kids, housework etc. and can definitely tell when I am over doing it. <br/> <br/> Sometimes I just have to lay down flat on my back to alleviate the neck and shoulder pain. I was just cu...

Re: Feeling really down until...

It is amazing what we as humans can do to figure things out. I always say if there is a will there is a way.

You should be proud even though it hurts at the same time that is an amazing accomplishment.

Stay positive and thank you for sharing your story.

Re: Travel Tips

<t>I always bring a pillow with me when I travel. Weather it be flying or driving. I use the pillow to sleep on of course hehee..but I also use a pillow or blanket to prop my arm up on, especially on long drives. It really helps alleviate the arm from just hanging for such a long period of time. <br...
