I wake up every morning with severe shoulder pain from arthritis, any help?

[Journeyman]

It hurts like hell..

My shoulder has a dull ache almost every morning , and I wake up because of it...it goes away almost instantly after I am awake but I need some kind of relief for this....it just started getting much worse over the past few months.

any ideas?

J-Man,

Wish I could help, I think Im getting hit with arthritis in various parts too. I did have a muscle strain in my shoulder a few months back, caused by sleeping on it wrong, maybe that's all your problem is?

I've read that diet might play a part in arthritis too, but every food or drink they say isn't good for it is something I dont wanna give up...cant win.

No my shoulder is really bad..I ripped something in it about 5 years ago and it has never been the same..I wish I had it operated on back then ... Until recently though, it didn't bother me when I slept...the pain goes away as soon as I wake up but waking up to this pain each morning is starting to wear on me.

I doubt there's anything i can do without some sort of operation.

I'm going to wish I had my knee operated on too I think. Still doesn't bother me to run, bike ride, etc.....but some days, when I had a manual truck, the shifting would kill me if I hit traffic.

I use cat's claw for alleviating pain, works well. Also, copper, boron, chamomile are great for arthritis too.

You could also try Stinging nettle leaf before you go to bed. Directly apply it before you go to bed, this might help too.

I am a firm believer that there is natural herbs that can give relief, treat, cure any illness that is treated with any RX. The RX industry is nothing but a cash cow, juicing us with chemicals.

** The above herbs, can be found in any health food store, Wild Oats is a good one.

Try some Celebrex - I get tendonitis in my knee after basketball and it really helps.

Get yourself on FISH OIL supplements.

Drink at least 60 ounces of PURE water a day also.

Try Glucosamine. Has helped me.

I had the same problem, but have fgured out why. Used to sleep with on my side, kind of tilted, with one arm underneath the pillow and the pillow on top of my arm, where my head would rest basically on top of my shoulder. Would wake up with sore rotator as a result.

Are you putting pressure on arm or shoulder as you sleep? Maybe that is why, who knows.

tiger balm may help.
