Shoulder Conditions
Strong Shoulders, Strong You
Understanding Shoulder Conditions
Your shoulders give you the freedom to reach, lift, and move with ease but when something goes wrong, even simple tasks like combing your hair or reaching for a cup can feel impossible. Shoulder problems can develop from overuse, injury, or natural wear and tear, and they often get worse if left untreated. Early diagnosis and proper care can make a big difference in restoring your mobility and comfort.
Pain, stiffness, or weakness in the shoulder joint

Common Shoulder Conditions We Treat
Rotator Cuff Tear
A rotator cuff tear occurs when one or more of the tendons in the shoulder are damaged, as a result of an acute injury, chronic overuse, or aging. The individual may experience shoulder pain, weakness, or limitation with arm lifting. If left untreated, the condition may progress to permanently disabling shoulder weakness and stiffness.
Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)
Adhesive capsulitis is characterized by the progressive stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint due to inflammation and scarring of the shoulder capsule. The progressive nature of the condition can make basic activities exceedingly challenging, like reaching over one’s head or behind one’s back.
Shoulder Impingement
The injury is clinically described as a Glenohumeral dislocation or Shoulder dislocation, where the humerus comes out of the glenoid cavity. The dislocated shoulder joint can be caused by trauma, sports, or a fall. Symptoms include acute pain, swelling, weakness, and with inappropriate treatment can lead to frequent dislocations and chronic shoulder joint instability.
Dislocated Shoulder
A shoulder dislocation happens when the upper arm bone pops out of its socket, often due to trauma, sports injuries, or falls. It causes intense pain, swelling, and weakness, and if not managed properly, can lead to repeated dislocations and long-term instability.
Shoulder Arthritis
Shoulder arthritis occurs when the cartilage covering the bones in the shoulder joint wears down, leading to pain, swelling, and reduced range of motion. It can develop from aging, injury, or other joint diseases, and can significantly impact everyday movements.
Bursitis of the Shoulder
Shoulder bursitis is the inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion the joint. This can cause sharp or aching pain, especially with overhead activities, and may develop from repetitive movements, injuries, or underlying shoulder conditions.
Common SHOULDER CONDITIONS We Treat
ROTATOR CUFF TEAR
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize your shoulder. Tears whether from injury or gradual wear can cause pain, weakness, and trouble lifting your arm.
FROZEN SHOULDER (Adhesive Capsulitis)
A condition where the shoulder joint becomes stiff and painful due to thickening of its capsule. Movement gradually becomes restricted, often over months.
SHOULDER IMPINGEMENT
Occurs when shoulder tendons are pinched between bones, leading to pain when lifting your arm and possible swelling in the joint.
DISLOCATED SHOULDER
When the upper arm bone pops out of its socket, it causes sudden pain, deformity, and loss of function. Often results from falls or sports injuries.
SHOULDER ARTHRITIS
The protective cartilage in the shoulder wears down, leading to stiffness, swelling, and persistent pain. Movement may become increasingly difficult.
BURSITIS OF THE SHOULDER
The labrum is a rim of cartilage that helps stabilize the shoulder. Tears can cause pain, catching, or a sense of instability.
