8 Major Causes of Shoulder Pain-
- Trauma
- Arthritis
- Shoulder Joint Sprain
- Frozen Shoulder
- Tendonitis
- Bursitis
- Rotator Cuff Impingement
- Posterior Joint Capsule Contracture.
1. Trauma-
Trauma is Caused by-
- Auto Accident
- Work Accident
- Slip And Fall On Slippery Surface
- Domestic Injury
These Accidents/Injuries Can Result in-
a. Tendon Tear
b. Rotator Cuff Tear
c. Fracture of Shoulder Joint-
Shoulder Joint Fracture Includes Fracture of the following Bones-
- Humerus
- Scapula (Glenoid Cavity)
- Acromion
- Clavicle Close to the Acromio-Clavicular Joint.
d. Dislocation Of Shoulder Joint-
Shoulder Joint Dislocation Is Separation Of Humerus In one of the following Direction-
- Anterior
- Posterior
- Inferior
- Superior
e. Labral Tear-
Tear Of The Rim Is Known As Labral Tear
3. Shoulder Joint Sprain
Shoulder Joint Sprain Is Caused By-
- Ligamental Tear
- Inflammation Of The Ligament
- Inflammation Of Shoulder Joint Capsule
- Partial Or Complete Tear Of The Ligament
4. Frozen Shoulder
- Frozen Shoulder is Caused by Inflamed Shoulder Joint Capsule.
- Leads to severe Joint Movement Restriction
- Extremely Stiff Joint
- It is triggered By Systemic Disorders.
5. Shoulder Tendonitis
- Tendonitis Is Inflammatory Condition Of Tendon.
- Tendonitis May Result From Tendon Injury. Tendon Injury Causes Laceration, Partial Tear Or Complete Tear Of Tendon.
- Tendonitis Is Also Often Seen With Degenerative Joint Disease.
6. Shoulder Bursitis
- Inflammation Of Bursa Is Known As Bursitis.
- Bursitis Causes Severe Pain With Joint Movement As Well As Movements Of Tendon And Ligament. Inflammation Stimulates Sensory Nerve Fibers Resulting In Severe Pain.
7. Rotator Cuff Impingement
- Rotator Cuff Impingement Is Caused By Squeezed Of The Rotator Cuff During Upper Arm Abduction At Shoulder Joint.
- Rotator Cuff Impingement May Result In Bursitis And Tendonitis When Bursa Or Tendon Is Part Of The Pinch.
8. Posterior Joint Capsule Contracture
Inflammation and Thickening of the shoulder capsule.
