Understanding Stingers or Burners in Shoulder Injuries
Stingers or burners refer to episodes of burning or stinging pain, often with weakness or parasthesia, common in impact sports like rugby and American football. Differentiating these symptoms from cervical spine fractures or nerve issues is crucial for appropriate treatment. Cases like a young rugby player with three stingers in a season highlight the impact of these injuries on athletes' performance and recovery.
