Okay you guys i already started a thread about 8-9 days ago when this happened but i DO NOT UNDERSTAND this injury...my right traperzious muscle was injured i guess (woke up the next day and it was extremely sore) and i have this small knot inside the muscle and it is kind of tight when i flex my trap muscles but HAVE NOT worked out since the morning i woke up with pain but this injury it not near as bad now but it seems to be at a stand still for the past few days and if any of you know me i use weightlifting as my release of bad energy i have and i am finding myself getting back to the old me which is not good with all this energy of not lifting i dont think i pulled or strained it i dont know what i did i dont understand it and im the verge of working out light weight tomorrow b/c i am going nuts lol any new ideas wtf happened to it it is a small knott on the back top part of my trap muscle right side???

sorry for bothering you guys even more about this injury but their seems to be some smart guys here and no one around me (family friends) know anything about the anatomy or working out so its useless to ask them

Thats what i am going to do tomorrow tenny if it hurts again after i took off as hard as it was for me to do lol (annoying you guys with questions) im going to bite the bullet and go to the doctor *sighs* and waste money trying to heal it up quicker...thanks tenny you always answer my thread about the injury

Do some squats - train around it - the light weight suggestion
was a good one - get the blood moving around the injury but
don't hurt it worse. A trip to the doctor probably wouldn't hurt either.

Very hard to say like this , but your looking for ideas so i can tell you an experience that i had. I train very heavy ( for me ) and intense...and sometimes i get a kink here or there. Anyway ...from doing heavy shrugs I hurt my trap..near the insertion point of my trap to the delt. It was a tight ball similar to what your explaining. I feel my injury was a severe pull, and I had to lay off heavy weights for a few weeks. It was hard to squat or hack squat due to the weight on my shoulders.

Michael you hit the nail on the head i am looking for suggestions and thank u brother ya i am going to do light weight to see how it acts the next day nothing heavy....and michael question is for u when u strained that muscle u still did light upper body correct? i think that is what u were saying in the post


thank you again guys one day i may have some good input instead of bothering you guys with all these questions
