    My judo sensei always says you need to have doctors that play your sport for them to be effective in helping advise you on or diagnose your issues. The idea being that it is more about ease of communication than it is about medical ability in those two regards.

    So, does anyone know of a doctor in the Southcentral Indiana area that shoots and is accepting patients?

    My shoulder problems are only getting worse and I have been to two doctors of which neither were helpful. We are getting to place where I can't be in a prone or seated position for more than about 30 seconds. It is affecting my accuracy and my mental disposition while shooting. Even unslung with a shotgun its an issue because I can't track and lead the bird properly.

    Weeze gotsta dooze something.

    What type of shoulder injury are we talking about here? Bone on bone contact? Rotator cuff? Collarbone?

    There are loads of things I can offer (exercise) wise, but it's not going to help them all (or any of them depending).

    I have achilles tendonitis (heel), and when it flares up I can barely walk. I'm supposed to do "wall push ups" to help with the inflammation, but it occurs so sporadically that I feel I'm wasting my time. I do them before any big activities.
