The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body and shoulder pain is a common experience.
The shoulder has four tendons, which are connective tissues that join muscle to bone. These four tendons, called the “rotator cuff,” are subject to injury and discomfort due to a wide range of causes. If you experience shoulder pain, the multidisciplinary team of chiropractors, physicians and physical therapists at In Motion can help.
There are many causes of shoulder pain including swelling, inflammation, changes in the bone, and tearing of the tendons. Arthritis and degenerative conditions, as well as the natural aging process, also cause shoulder pain. Normal wear and tear may result in shoulder tendonitis, an inflammation of the tendons. This occurs due to the shoulder’s wide range of motion and can be worsened by sports like baseball and tennis, in which the shoulder is extensively used. Other shoulder conditions include bursitis - an inflammatory disorder, shoulder dislocation, shoulder separation, fracture, inflamed tendons near the shoulder, and “frozen shoulder syndrome,” which occurs when the shoulder is not moved due to a prior injury.
