The sad thing is if I could get an anti-inflammatory scrip it would probably heel in no time. However, a family doc is not likely to give me something just so I can get back to benching.  |
I have no doubt that you have inflammation... but I'm saying the
cause of the inflammation might be the lack of scapular stabilization. If it happens regularly (the scap movement during heavy pressing) then eventually you'll end up with some inflammation that won't go away easily. Perhaps the dips lock you into the position and stop the 'rubbing', wherever it may be. Also, even with prescription-strength anti-inflammatories, it doesn't fix the source of the problem, thus not preventing it from happening again.
That's all I was saying.
