Least physically demanding job in the world is giving you pains. Don't know what to say. I'll ask around the female crews to see if they've noticed anything.

Yeah, I've noticed some shoulder problems. I've had 2 months of physical therapy, with very little relief. I got an MRI a couple days ago, and am walking out the door in 15 minutes to see if I need surgery.
Damn thing hurts all the time. Worst part is, every time I come home and my two year old runs to greet me shouting "daddy!", I have to remember to lift him with my left arm, the right hurts so bad I'm afraid I'm going to drop him.
Hope the brace helps.

Well, there's no telling if it was from the ERJ or something else. But 10 years of throwing bags on the ramp didn't hurt it. And 7 years flying other aircraft didn't hurt it. But after 6 months in the saddle of an ERJ....
Like everything else in the world it probably was a little of this and a little of that. A genetic predisposition. Too much (or too little) calcium in my diet. A god forsakenly heavy flight bag, and too many trips up and down airstairs. And lifting onto the screening belt. And trying to place it in the overhead.
Maybe the ram's horns were just the last straw.
