SHOULDER PAIN RELATED ARTICLES:

Common shoulder
conditions:

  • The rotator cuff refers to muscles and tendons surrounding the joint of the shoulder. A rotator cuff injury can be caused by overuse and is often seen in athletes or individuals who frequently lift heavy objects. The rotator cuff can become inflamed or even tear, causing shoulder pain.

  • A strain of the ligament of the shoulder is caused by stretching or tearing and can be painful. Shoulder strains can make it difficult to move the shoulder and arm.

  • Arthritis can affect the shoulder, causing inflammation or deterioration of the shoulder joint. Arthritis of the shoulder is common in older patients due to gradual wear and tear causing shoulder pain and limited range of motion.
