The shoulder is one of the most flexible joints in the body, but that mobility also makes it prone to injury. From athletes to office workers, shoulder issues affect people in all walks of life. At OrthoCare360, we help patients navigate these injuries and find paths to recovery that fit their needs.
Rotator Cuff Tears
Rotator cuff injuries are among the most common shoulder conditions. They may result from repetitive motion, age-related wear, or sudden trauma. Symptoms often include pain during lifting or reaching, weakness, and limited mobility.
Treatment may include physical therapy, anti-inflammatory measures, or in some cases, surgical repair. Explore more about our Shoulder Care Services at OrthoCare360.
Shoulder Impingement
Shoulder impingement occurs when tendons are compressed during arm movements, often leading to irritation and discomfort. Modifying activities, guided exercises, and occasionally injections may help reduce symptoms and restore motion.
Dislocations and Instability
Dislocations happen when the upper arm bone slips out of its socket. Even after correction, the joint may remain unstable, increasing the risk of future dislocations. Ongoing strengthening and stabilization programs often play a vital role in treatment.
Arthritis in the Shoulder
Arthritis can cause gradual stiffness and pain, making it harder to complete everyday tasks. Management approaches may include therapy, medications, or, when necessary, surgical procedures like shoulder replacement.
External Resources
Shoulder injuries can range from minor irritation to serious conditions. Recognizing symptoms early and seeking professional care ensures the best chance of recovery and long-term strength.
