Shoulder Pain
Understanding the anatomy of the shoulder should help in diagnosing the causes of shoulder pain that can be highly uncomfortable and affect your daily life. Just imagine how much uneasy and helpless you feel when the shoulder joint aches while moving your hands. The level of discomfort indicates the extent of damage to the rotator cuff comprising several muscles and tendons around the shoulder joint that facilitates a wide range of motion. Shoulder pain might happen due to damage, bone changes, or inflammation around the rotator cuff. Tendons getting under the bony area of the shoulder leading to their damage and swelling is the most common cause of shoulder pain.
Other Causes of Shoulder Pain
Bone spurs in the shoulder area, arthritis in the shoulder joint, broken shoulder bone, shoulder separation, dislocation of the shoulder bone, and Bursitis or inflammation of the bursa, a fluid-filled sac that facilitates shoulder movement. Torn rotator cuff tendons, poor shoulder mechanics and posture, and injury or overuse of nearby bicep muscles can cause shoulder pain. Frozen shoulder is a condition manifested by the stiffness of the capsule, muscles, ligaments, and tendons inside the shoulder joint causing pain and difficulty in motion.
Sometimes, problems in the heart, lungs or neck can lead to shoulder pain but such cases are very few. Such pain occurs even during rest and does not increase during movements.
Remedies of Shoulder Pain
Some home remedies might relieve mild or moderate pain. Put an ice pack on the shoulder for 15-20 minutes and repeat it 3-4 times and the pain should subside in 2-3 days. Exercising under the guidance of a physiotherapist can cure shoulder pain by strengthening the shoulder muscles and the rotator cuff tendons.
Seek immediate medical care if any injury is the cause of shoulder pain.
