What’s Causing My Pain?
The shoulder is a complex joint vulnerable to many conditions. At Allied Neurology & Interventional Pain Practice, we frequently diagnose and treat:
- Rotator cuff injuries: Tears or strains affecting shoulder movement
- Shoulder impingement syndrome: Tendons compressed during arm lifting
- Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis): Stiffness limiting mobility
- Shoulder bursitis: Inflammation of fluid-filled sacs cushioning the joint
- Tendonitis: Inflammation of the shoulder tendons from overuse
- Arthritis: Degeneration of joint surfaces causing pain and stiffness
- Labral tear: Damage to cartilage supporting the shoulder socket
- Fractures or dislocations: Trauma-induced injuries
- Referred pain: Conditions like cervical radiculopathy, causing shoulder symptoms
