So like title says I have a issue where im not able to play nearly as often as I want to and its sort of hindering my progress in the game. So I have no pain while throwing but after a 18 hole round the next day and never during the round or same day. It is the most upper part of my chest that gets very sore especially where it attatches to the shoulder. It takes a good 3-4 days then im somewhat good to throw again without pain but the same thing happens every time I play.
I visited physio and he said I had a inflammation and I got exercises and instructions on when to throw and when not to throw (basicly stop the round if it hurts during a throw). Its gotten better and better but I still am basicly out of it for a few days whenever I play. Ive been playing for roughly 8-9 months consistently. I know im supposed to relax the arm and followthrough and all that which I am currently doing cause I asked a friend to watch me throw and compared to some videos online.
For some reason my chest muscle gets sort of stretched out during the followthrough and I think thats whats causing the soreness the next few days. I can do a chest exericse without any pain or soreness which leads me to believe its not muscle fatigue. It is only in the most outer stretch of the chest I feel the pain/inflammation. I stretch preround and I do exercises to increase chest strenght etc but this issue just doesnt seem to go away. I got no clue how to fix this or at least reduce the "downtime" after rounds. Like I said its not a chronic thing or something that really hinders me from playing 1 round per week but this summer I wanted to step up my game and play at least 2 times a week but my chest soreness just doesnt allow it currently as I dont wanna cause an injury throwing while sore.
