Shoulder Impingement Symptoms
6. Pain at Night
Regardless of how healthy you are, it is very important that you get enough sleep. A lack of sleep can make you feel terrible the next day, while it can also have long-term effects on your physical and mental well-being. Most people are fortunate enough to not experience problems sleeping but not everybody can say the same.
The pain from a shoulder impingement is likely to increase quite significantly at night. This pain can make it harder for the patient to get any sleep at night, and this can result in an overall decrease in their quality of life. Painkillers may be able to help, but it is important to be careful when using painkillers because they can lead to addiction.
