I am a weight lifter. In the middle of the night, I woke up because of the extreme pain on both sides of shoulder (anterior deltoid). This is happening when I am laying flat facing up. I am not sure because my back and chest so thick which causes my arms to stretch and pull my shoulders down while I am laying facing up. Wonder if anyone can help with some tips or advices on how to illiminate this pain. Thank you.

Since you lift- you may have over done it and torn your rotator cuff. If it doesn’t feel better in 3-5 days with OTC meds such as Aleeve- and Ice- see your Doctor
I think a doctor should be consulted because your bulked muscles are not the cause. I think you may have caused an injury in there somewhere. Don’t take a chance on it getting worse,
You can try some ibuprofen or advil. Since they are anti inflamatories it may help. If the pain doesn’t subside after using one of these, I would suggest going to a doctor.
