Ugh... shoulder pain...

*Pain pain PAAAAIIIINNNNNN!*
My right shoulder is aching like mad now, especially the area nearest my neck. It's been like this for a couple of days already. Before that, I had already been feeling a mild strain for some time, the kind of feeling you get when you sleep for too long on just that one side of your body. But this... THIS IS BAD...
Can't even play ping pong properly now, can't lift up my right arm without going 'ow..ow..ow...', can't rotate my shoulder without feeling extreme ache. UGH!!! Last night Hubby 'forced' me to go through some reflexology treatment using our OTO electro-reflexology machine. Sat on the sofa with my right shoulder twitching uncontrollably and me whimpering for THIRTY minutes cos of the electric pulses sent to that part of my body. Sheesh. Still not much improvement leh.
So, I've decided to use another method. (Whatever helps, except for Chinese sinseh who might crack my bones @_@!!!)
Hubby's out there with a friend now, so I asked him to get me some salonpas medicated patches. Used to see Mummy and Papa paste such patches on their aching bodies, possibly more often as they get older, but didn't expect myself to have to 'suffer' the same fate at this age. Alamak.
Gonna paste one on my aching shoulder before bed later. Hope tomorrow when I awake, it'll be much better. Now I'm even afraid of slinging a bag on that shoulder. Gonna dig out one of my hand-carry bags later for use over the next couple of days.
Pain...pain...go away... :(((
