Inflamed acromio clavicular joint

[Dms86]

I've been to the doctors and this is what he has diagnosed my problem as. I have a marble ish sized hard lump on my left shoulder about halfway down. It is only slightly painful when you push it with quite a lot of pressure.

I have been back in the gym for over a year now (only lifting no cardio) and it does not give me any pain or restrict my movement.

The doctor advised to take ibuprofen and use the gel also. He also said I can carry on working out as normal and it could take weeks and weeks to disappear. He didn't seem overly concerned and I had a feeling he just wanted me out of there!

So I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this problem and did it go away? Did you experience any long term effects?

Thanks.
