Shoulder Pain
What most people call the shoulder is really several joints that combine with tendons and muscles to allow a wide range of motion in the arm — from scratching your back to taking the perfect golf swing to being able to do your daily chores.You may feel pain only when you move your shoulder…or all of the time. The pain may be temporary or it may continue and require medical diagnosis and treatment.
Ortho El Paso treats shoulder pain including:
- Tendon inflammation (bursitis or tendinitis) or tendon tear
- Instability
- Arthritis
- Fracture (broken bone)
- Other much less common causes of shoulder pain are tumors, infection, and nerve-related problems.
