Shoulder Pain

Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain is a common musculoskeletal complaint affecting people of all ages. It can range from mild discomfort to severe pain that restricts movement and daily activities. The shoulder is a complex joint, comprising bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments, all of which can contribute to pain when injured or inflamed.

Causes of Shoulder Pain

  1. Rotator Cuff Injuries:
    Tears or inflammation of the rotator cuff tendons due to overuse, trauma, or aging are common causes.

  2. Arthritis:
    Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis in the shoulder joint can cause stiffness, swelling, and chronic pain.

  3. Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis):
    Stiffness and pain gradually reduce the range of motion, often following injury or prolonged immobility.

  4. Bursitis:
    Inflammation of the bursa (fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction) can lead to sharp pain, especially with movement.

  5. Dislocations and Fractures:
    Trauma or accidents can result in partial or complete dislocation or fracture of the shoulder bones.

  6. Tendonitis and Overuse Injuries:
    Repetitive movements, especially in sports or certain occupations, can inflame tendons, causing pain.

Symptoms

  • Pain during rest or movement.

  • Stiffness and reduced range of motion.

  • Swelling or tenderness around the shoulder.

  • Weakness in the arm or difficulty lifting objects.

  • Clicking or popping sounds during movement.
