HI Guru For nearly a year I've been suffering from a combination of a stiff left side trapezius and left shoulder pain that also radiates down my left arm to the elbow on occasions. Its a low level constant discomfort at best and at times its a low to medium pain. I have no problem rotating my shoulder but do feel pain when put under resistance.

Hi Farooq Sounds like an issue with your neck, due to you having a really stiff thoracic spine. Try to get your thoracic spine moving better, but in doing so don't overcompensate and put the excessive load into your neck - you're already doing that! That are some great stretches on a foam roller, have a good hard look at your working position and stop poking your chin out! Try and tuck your chin in (not double!) by lifting your chest up - subtle changes go a long way The Guru Six Physio
