Shoulders

Having been studying the "Frozen Shoulder Workbook" recently in search of a solution for recurring pain in my mouse-hand shoulder, this item caught my eye today. Seems researchers found that, while Pitching Changes Little Leaguer's Shoulders and some of it results in long-lasting protective changes, too much is a bad thing. Some kids are playing lots of games all year round and are getting into painful situations. Better to vary the sports a kid plays, they say--and even just quit sports for a while and go be a kid (which is not to suggest spending endless hours on video games--which has its own set of perils).

The answers always seem to head in the direction of "moderation in all things." Not very exciting, of course, but fairly reliable.
