Well, today I took one of those steps that men don't like doing and, instead of complaining to innocent colleagues, took my sholder injury to a physiotherapist. I had considered going to a doctor, but it was a long drive, and I was busy, and I couldn't remember his name.......
But, while in the gym, Pam, one of my fellow swimmers, suggested going to the physio at the gym. Very sensible and it invalidated all my excuses in one hit. So I did.
Very helpfully they talked me through what had happened and it appears that this occured due to 'series of events' which may get me an ACC number and will substantially reduce the cost of the treatment.
The physio, Gretchen, evaluated the shoulder and apparently the problem is a muscular imbalance, not a shagged shoulder as I anticipated. So can be cured with a bit of work, but I am going to have to back off the swimming for a while, oh well, that's life.
