Can sleeping on your side injure your shoulder??
I've been having a hell of a time with my left shoulder the past couple of months and after falling asleep for an hour nap this afternoon (on my left side) I went to the gym and had a pretty bad chest workout.
I felt a lot of pain while doing barbell bench once the bar was in the lower 1/3 of the lift (closest to my chest). Although as the weight went up the pain went down but i still just felt weak. Furthermore I felt a lot of pain when doing very light dumbell flys but only when my left arm came close to parallel with the floor.
Should I start forcing myself to sleep in a different position or could I have a more serious problem?
