Train in pain

[rccs]

I have a bad elbow and shoulder, both left arm. When I am doing bench, some times the pain is very strong. I tried to rest, used some Voltaren pills, took magnesium, vit. C E, etc. Doctors say that everithing is fine! As this wasn't enough, I have some pain on the heart area and I cannot distinguish if it is muscle pain or something vascular, it hurts alot when I breed intensivly after heavy bench or heavy squat! What do you guys think?

I don't exactly smoke, but I spend many hours per week, doing security in clubs were there are lots of smoke! My clothing gets a nasty, cigarrette smell!

yuck, yeah i wouldn't want to be breathing that in too much.  Hopefully that isn't the cause for your pain in your chest. All your minor pains should be treated though, hot tub or massage or anti-inflamitories from your doc.

Out on a limb but... it may be a vagovasal reaponse causing the pain. Try working on your breathing and see if that helps.

Another (and more likely) possibility is a subluxated rib head on the left. In your area, only an osteopath would be able to put it back into place. If you can get a good osteopath on the phone, he/she'll be able to tell you for sure if it's a rib in less than a minute.

Thanx for the tip!
