Does shoulder pain limit your daily activities?
You’re not alone. Shoulder pain is a common issue affecting people of all ages, from athletes to weekend warriors and those simply going about their daily lives. At Life Chiropractic in Phoenix, our shoulder pain specialists provide treatment to help you regain mobility and live pain-free.
Common Shoulder Pain Symptoms:
- Dull ache or stiffness in the shoulder
- Sharp pain radiating down the arm
- Difficulty reaching overhead or behind the back
- Weakness in the shoulder
- Reduced range of motion
- Popping or grinding sensation in the shoulder joint
Potential Causes of Shoulder Pain:
- Rotator Cuff Injury: The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. Repetitive motions, overuse, or trauma can damage these tissues, leading to pain and weakness.
- Arthritis: Wear and tear of the cartilage in the shoulder joint can cause pain, stiffness, and inflammation.
- Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursa, a fluid-filled sac that cushions the shoulder joint, can cause pain and tenderness.
- Tendinitis: Inflammation of a tendon in the shoulder can cause pain and tenderness.
- Frozen Shoulder: This condition causes stiffness and limited movement in the shoulder joint.
- Dislocation or Separation: A forceful impact can cause the bones in the shoulder joint to become misaligned.
- Muscle Strain: Overexertion or improper lifting technique can strain the muscles in the shoulder.
