Week ago Sunday, during a practice session, I heard a large POP in my bowling shoulder, then a grinding noise, then a sharp pain. I bowled a few more frames, then quit. Three days later, the pain was gone so I bowled one league. Then the past Sunday, my shoulder really started to hurt during practice, so I quit in the middle of the session.
Went to my regular doctor today, he said I had torn my bicep at the shoulder end. Tomorrow morning I go for an MRI and next week to the Sports Medicine doctor. Probably have surgery, then long term rehab for months.
Not a fun prognosis, especially at 74 years old. Guess I have simply worn out my shoulder after all these years of bowling. Boo, Hoo!
