Shoulder

The shoulder is a remarkably complex joint system, made up of three separate joints that work together to provide an impressive 180 degrees of motion across multiple planes. Because of its intricate structure, even minor injuries can significantly impact your mobility and comfort. When damage to the shoulder joint becomes severe enough to limit movement and cause chronic pain, shoulder replacement surgery can offer lasting relief and restore your range of motion.

Shoulder Injuries & Conditions

Rotator Cuff Tendinitis

Inflammation or irritation of the tendons of the rotator cuff (a group of four shoulder muscles), usually caused by overuse.

Rotator Cuff Tear

A partial or complete tear of one or more tendons of the rotator cuff, leading to pain and weakness, especially with overhead activity.

Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Occurs when the rotator cuff tendons are pinched between the bones of the shoulder, causing pain and reduced motion.

Shoulder Dislocation

When the head of the upper arm bone (humerus) is forced out of the shoulder socket (glenoid); usually due to trauma.

Shoulder Subluxation

A partial or incomplete dislocation of the shoulder joint that may spontaneously return to its place.

Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

A condition characterized by stiffness, pain, and reduced range of motion in the shoulder due to thickening and tightening of the joint capsule.

Shoulder Bursitis

Inflammation of the bursa (a fluid-filled sac that reduces friction), commonly due to repetitive movement or trauma.

Labral Tear (e.g., SLAP Tear)

A tear of the labrum (a ring of cartilage around the shoulder socket) that can cause pain, instability, and catching sensations.

Shoulder Arthritis

Degeneration of cartilage in the shoulder joint, leading to pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility. Most commonly osteoarthritis.
