Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
Below are some common disorders and conditions that we have successfully treated, giving patients back their mobility and ability to live a pain-free life.
Rotator Cuff
Injury
Rotator cuff injuries are one of the most common causes of shoulder pain. This can occur when then shoulder is exposed to sudden trauma or from muscle deterioration. Injuries to the rotator cuff can be a minor irritation to a full tear. Each scenario requires specialized treatment.
Arthritis
Arthritis pain and inflammation in the shoulder will restrict range of motion and can lead to weakness because of guarding or reduced use. Prolonged restricted movement can lead to frozen shoulder, which would be secondary to the arthritis. It's important to listen to your body and seek help when you notice issues with your shoulder.
Pinched
Nerves
Just like a pinched nerve in your back, a pinched nerve in your shoulder can cause weakness, numbness or tingling in the arm and hands. A pinched nerve can happen when a mechanical issue throws off proper joint function, or tissue swelling is compression on nerve fibers.
Surgery or medication are not the only roads to recovery.
