What Causes Shoulder Pain?
Shoulder pain, stemming from the complexities of the shoulder joint, involves an array of potential causes, often originating from everyday activities and structural weaknesses. Overhead work, heavy lifting, and performing tasks in awkward arm positions are common culprits, alongside activities involving repetitive movements, such as swinging a golf club or prolonged periods working at a cash register.
Some of the causes of shoulder pain stem from things we do everyday or specific incidents and conditions such as:
- Overhead work
- Heavy Lifting
- Using your arms in an awkward position
- Repetitive tasks (swinging a golf club or working at a cash register)
- AC joints sprains
- Overuse injuries
- Shoulder bursitis
- Arthritis
Here are some specific conditions that contribute to shoulder pain:
- Impingement: Occurs when the shoulder blade pressures the rotator cuff tendons during arm elevation, leading to limited motion, discomfort, and potentially evolving into tendinitis or bursitis.
- Tendon Tears: Result from degenerative changes or sudden injuries, where the tendon splits from the bone or tears away, causing acute pain.
- Instability: Prolonged use causing looseness or tears in the shoulder’s ligaments, tendons, or muscles, impacting the security of the upper arm bone in its socket.
- Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis): Causing stiffness and pain due to prolonged immobility following surgery or injury.
- Radiculopathy: Pain radiating up the neck, leading to tingling or muscle weakness, typically due to nerve irritation.
- Tendonitis: Inflammation within the tendons, often seen in the rotator cuff or bicep, resulting in discomfort and limited mobility.
Furthermore, our providers at Advanced Pain Solutions address various causes of shoulder pain, including AC joint sprains, overuse injuries, bursitis, and arthritis, tailoring treatments to provide comprehensive care and alleviate shoulder discomfort.
