Well I just had x-rays done a couple weeks ago because workers comp sent me to an IME (independent medical evaluation) and all he said in the report is that I have a type II/III acromion. He also said the left shoulder looks symmetrical to the right, which shouldn't be the case I would think, since I had the decompression which would take away from some of the acromion on the right.
And I know sleeping on it wrong can make it worse. I woke up on morning barely able to move my arm it hurt so bad, must have slept on it for a while. It went away after like an hour, but definitely not fun. I've already been icing it multiple times a day, and am on celebrex for inflammation already.
As for thinking it's the AC joint, the spot I'm touching is soft tissue, and it's slightly below the clavicle, so I don't know if that's the case. Perhaps it could be the ligament from the coracoid process that connects it to the AC joint, but at the same time, I am barely touching where it hurts, so whatever it is isn't very deep. But that is still a suggestion to bring up with the doctor, so thanks for the reply.
