i had an injury in my shoulder in july, i gave it 1 month off and since then ive been training moderate level, there are days i feel more pain than others, im not fully recovered this will take time...

Be pacient, because injuries take time to heal, you will suffer with your psicological, but thats part of it.

If its still swollen you can take anti inflamatory in couple days and go for some ice. But dont go on forever with anti-inflamatories becuase they will make your injury worse.

Get it checked out, see if it was a tear, a tendon, or cartillage stress.

SOme people like heat, other prefer cold, scientifically there is a big contradiction in whch one you should use while healing, for me i feel better with ice aplication 20 min 2 times day.

Best of luck, injuries suck, but you will be ok.

if you really tore it completely then it would be black almost instantly. Everyone that i have talked to that has torn something very badly said within seconds it was black.

I tore my pec about 2 yrs ago and it did turn black and blue for a couple of weeks ( huge area - whole pec). Heard and felt a pop when it happened. You just have to take it easy for awhile .... no chest workouts for 6 to 8 wks at least. I started back too soon b/c it felt and looked better and tore it again. When it does finally heal you will have a slight defect b/c the part that tears will reattach in a slightly different position (that is if you really tore some of the muscle loose - which I did). If you go to a doc they may suggest reattachment - but it actually heals ok w/o that.
