It\u2019s Spring In Florida<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"spring<\/a>March is a beautiful time of year here in Florida, and it\u2019s the beginning of Spring for our friends and relatives in the northern states.\u00a0 I lived most of my life in New York, and I loved when the purple crocuses started peeping up through the snow.\u00a0 Spring was on its way!<\/p>\n

Of course, on March 17th<\/sup> there is also that fun holiday \u2013 St. Patrick\u2019s Day.\u00a0 The parade in New York City is the largest St. Patrick\u2019s Day parade in the world, followed by Dublin. In fact, the first parade in New York was in 1762, a full 14 years before the signing of the Declaration of Independence.\u00a0 It\u2019s a huge party, a parade that lasts for hours officially, and then the party continues for many more hours unofficially.<\/p>\n

Everyone is Irish on St. Patrick\u2019s Day!\u00a0 So, whether you are born Irish, or you\u2019re just Irish for the day, I wish you this popular Irish blessing\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cMay the road rise up to meet you<\/p>\n

May the wind be always at your back<\/p>\n

And may the sun shine be warm upon your face.\u201d<\/p>\n

A Tiny Muscle Can Cause Shoulder And Arm Pain<\/h2>\n

\"biceps<\/a>A tiny muscle that can cause biceps pain.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is a pencil thin muscle that runs from the cartilage of your 1st<\/sup> rib to the end of your clavicle (collar bone). The name of the muscle is Subclavius.<\/p>\n

The subclavius muscle lifts your first rib when you inhale so your lungs can expand, and it also stabilizes the joint between your clavicle and your sternum.\u00a0 It\u2019s a small muscle and most people aren\u2019t aware of it, or how it helps us.<\/p>\n

Normally this muscle is not repetitively strained, however during a time of rapid breathing it can go into spasm.\u00a0 Perhaps you have a cough and you are doing sudden, rapid breaths. Or, maybe you are a runner and you\u2019re breathing rapidly. Anything that makes you take deep breaths quickly can cause muscle spasms to form in your subclavius muscle.<\/p>\n

As shown by the green shading on the chart, the referred pain for the subclavius goes across the entire length of the front of your shoulder, and then continues down biceps muscle on the front of your arm.\u00a0 The darker shading demonstrates where the greatest pain is felt. While the pain is most frequently felt in the shoulder, biceps pain can also occur.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

An Unexpected Cause Of Biceps Pain<\/h2>\n

\"biceps<\/a>If you have pain in your biceps muscle, you may not consider that a muscle spasm in the top\/front of your chest is the source of the problem. If rubbing and stretching your biceps isn\u2019t giving relief, you are stuck for a solution.\u00a0 Yet, just putting direct pressure on the spasm, located at your sternum, just under your collarbone, will solve the problem.<\/p>\n

Press your finger directly onto the spot.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t find a tender point, move \u00bd\u201d toward the outside and continue pressing until you find a tender point.\u00a0 This is the spasm that is causing the pain pattern.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s as simple as that!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wishing you well,<\/p>\n
