Building my left shoulder

[alaski]

I don't know what to do about my left shoulder that has arthritis, limiting my range motion somewhat, but I still train it. It's driving me crazy after going through painful training, it doesn't want grow like my right shoulder. It's very noticeable to me the difference between my left and right sides. My left arm is even suffering from the issue with my shoulder. I train it just as hard as my right.

Should I add some other exercises to my left shoulder? Can do site injections to my left side only?

are the nerves being impinged any way. that will inhibit growth as well. what sort of range of motion do you have. doing overhead , laterals? have you had x-rays or an MRI to show the extent of the damage?

I've had both MRI and X-rays. My left shoulder has noticeable arthritis with some bone spurs on my shoulder socket and my scapula. Raising my left arm above my head is very challenging but can be done.

I was thinking nerve damage from way back when I played college ball, where I had stinger to where I lost 50% strength on left side. It seems old injuries keep popping up as I get older.

Nevertheless, I want to do something to make it grow.
