Shoulder Pain
Shoulder Pain
The shoulder is easily injured because the ball of the upper arm is larger than the shoulder socket that holds it. To remain stable, the shoulder must be anchored by its muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
Impingement/Tendonitis of the Shoulder
Impingement is one of the most common causes of pain in the adult shoulder. It results from pressure on the rotator cuff from part of the shoulder blade (scapula) as the arm is lifted.
Rotator Cuff Tears
Rotator cuff tear is a common cause of pain and disability in the adult population. The rotator cuff is made up of four muscles and their tendons.
Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is a disorder characterized by pain and loss of motion or stiffness in the shoulder. It affects about two percent of the general population.
Dislocated/Unstable Shoulder
The shoulder joint is your body's most mobile joint. It can turn in many directions, but this advantage also makes your shoulder joint easy to dislocate.
Arthritis of the Shoulder
Although most people think of the shoulder as a single joint, there are really two joints in the area of the shoulder. Both joints may be affected by arthritis.
Shoulder Joint Replacement
Shoulder replacement surgery started in the United States in the 1950s. It was used as a treatment for severe shoulder fractures.
