    Then I’m not sure why you started talking about shoulders and yoga instead of walking…

    Like, I agreed with you that yoga would help your shoulder.

    It’s just not the same as walking a mile 3/week for general chronic pain, which is why you had to change the injury and the treatment for an example of it working.

    I’m legitimately not sure what the confusion here is.

    Like, sometimes I take things as obvious when they’re not to anyone, but you understand for walking to help stretch what is causing mobility issues, it has to have no other cause than lack of exercise?

    And if they would have kept up the bare minimum of physical activity, they wouldn’t have developed chronic pain?

    For someone with chronic pain as a result of an actual health issue, you have to resolve the underlying issue.

    But I legitimately can’t think of how else to explain this, so if you don’t clarify what you’re having difficulty understanding here, I’m just not gonna be able to help.

      I’m not who replied to you originally. I responded to you because you’re making yourself out to be the end all be all authority and gatekeeper of chronic pain and what to do about it, while saying shit that’s outright false and being a smug dick about it too.

        Oh shit…

        Someone sounded like they knew more than you did?!

        Better result to 7th grade insults, that’ll show them!

        I mean. What else could you have done? Politely ask them for a source to back up what you didn’t feel was right?!

        Preposterous!
