Swimmers shoulder problem

    Hey all,
    Im a keen triathlete so maybe one of yee have experienced something similar.
     I have lived a sporting life relatively free from injury until a year ago when my right shoulder started to experience some light pain when I go swimming. Its not a crippling pain but it does hold me back from going 100%. I also notice the pain doing pullups and press ups and playing racket sports. I lived the last year in Amsterdam so visited 4 different physios for multiple sessions and I even got an MRI scan. All were fruitless. I would describe the pain as a numb feeling experienced when I extend my right arm straight. 
    If anyone has experienced anything similar could you recommend a good physio around Dublin who could help with this?
    Cheers

    I could not recommend Edel Fanning in Santry sports surgery clinic enough. I had awful shoulder problems before and she worked wonders with me. She specialises in shoulders. I had a very minor rotator cuff injury with a large amount of pain and weakness due to poor muscular strength and neuromuscular functions. She helped me no end
