Hi Gunner, good to hear. You’re doing the right thing by looking for a second opinion. 

By experience these types of pains are usually only felt when the movement is performed. In this case throwing at high velocity. No manual manipulation by any specialist will replicate the forces that occur when pitching (or swinging). If I were you, I would give the kid 4-6 weeks of break from what’s causing the pain. If he continues with the movement, the injury (yes is very minor now) will get worse. He can continue doing other stuff that doesn’t cause pain. Think about his future. 4-6 weeks now is nothing compared to where he’s going to be in 2-4 years.
