HOW DO I PREVENT SHOULDER PAIN FROM CRICKET?
Cricket involves repetitive swinging motions that your shoulders need to support. Ensure you complete stretching exercises before and after a match to strengthen the muscles in your shoulder and arms.
HOW TO TREAT COMMON SHOULDER INJURIES FROM CRICKET?
We recommend visiting a physiotherapist for treatment and advice on treating common cricket shoulder injuries. They may recommend the following treatments.
- Strains or Sprains. Many sprains and strains can be treated with the RICE method: Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. A physiotherapist can assist with the recovery as well. If the sprain is more severe you may require surgery.
- Bursitis. Common treatment options include pain-relieving medications, cold packs, gentle mobilisation and rest. If the cause of your bursitis was from overuse, it is important to avoid or modify that activity until symptoms reduce.
