What kind of shoulder injury would you think this is?


When I was younger 12-25 I player fast pitch and slow pitch. I played center field in fast pitch and rover in slow pitch. So lots of throws from the out field to home. Never felt a whole lot of pain then but I haven't played in 4 years cause of having babies. And now I can't go an entire day without feeling pain. I know a lot of it has to do with holding my children but what is the most likely injury I could have had and what would be the treatment. I also use to get massages when I was about 23 and my massage therapist said she had never felt that much scar tissue in a person my age.
I know most will say go to the doctor and I plan on it.
Sometimes my shoulder hurts to even use the mouse or type on my computer.
Also a lot of times I can feel this comes from my shoulder but i get a numbness or pins and needles feeling in my elbow and hands. ( I know it comes from my shoulder cause it become more apparent when my husband massage my shoulder)
Also could this be the source of my neck pain

Yikes, sounds like a torn/strained rotator cuff.

Could it be a past disloaction

rotate cuff hands down. you could have tear (worst case) or just over stressed it. I'm a competitive swimmer. and rotator cuff injuries is a problem that can end somebodies career. last year I hyperextended in my pull out in butterfly. I hurt like H***. I couldn't move my arm for almost 2 weeks without bring tears to my eye's. 2 months later I had a MRI and they told me I didn't have a tear, but I did dislocate it, and it was very weak. after 2 months of PT I was back to swimming.

for you I thing just being out of shape, you could have just pitched to hard. therefore, straining the muscles that hold your shoulder in place. I don't think you have a tear. but it will be sore for a while. lay off the pitching for a while. rest is always the best way to heal.

anti inflamitories helps too.
