Shoulder Pain

Identifying the cause of your shoulder pain is the first step toward effective treatment. Some of the most common causes include:

• Rotator cuff injuries: Tears or strains in the muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint can cause pain and limit movement.

• Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis): This condition causes stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint, often making it difficult to move your arm.

• Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the shoulder joint, can cause significant pain and discomfort.

• Tendinitis: Overuse of the shoulder can lead to inflammation of the tendons, causing pain and limited range of motion.

• Arthritis: Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can cause pain, stiffness, and swelling in the shoulder joint, particularly with age or chronic inflammation.

• Dislocation: A shoulder dislocation occurs when the upper arm bone pops out of the shoulder socket, often due to trauma or injury.
