Common types of shoulder pain
Rotator Cuff Injury
The rotator cuff tendons are some of the most injured areas in your shoulder. While typically not very serious long-term, it can cause quite a bit of pain!
Sprains and Strains
This is one of the more common injuries that we see. A sprain is an injury to your ligament and a strain is an injury to muscle.
Dislocations and Subluxations
A dislocation is when the shoulder “comes out of the socket” and you need help “putting it back in”. A Subluxation is a very similar sensation but the joint comes close to “coming out” but doesn’t fully, it’s a very uncomfortable and unsettling feeling.
Instability and Arthritis
Instability can come from many reasons whether it was a traumatic event or a genetic factor. Arthritis in the shoulder is typically osteoarthritis and related to more improper movement mechanics, rather than just age.
