Not sure if this actually belongs into the bodyweight forum, but let's try.
If someone has shoulder pain, visits the doctor, gets injections and passed on the the physiotherapist who lets the patient do push-ups, am wondering if this is the right thing to do to strengthen and rehabilitate the shoulders.
Have never heard about push-ups for restoring shoulder health. Plus, those push-ups are being done like usual, from the ground on the toes as the first progression. The person with the shoulder pain who has to do them is untrained.
So I am asking here if this would be a common "treatment"?
I know of other exercises, like tea-cup drill, Russian pool, arm bars and of course the Turkish getup which would better fit in my opinion.
