Why does my shoulder hurt?

Shoulder pain can range from mild aches and pains to severe bone-on-bone anguish.

Shoulder pain can be caused by a variety of things. You might have been in a car accident, pulled a muscle, have arthritis or developed shoulder pain from poor posture.

Whatever your level of discomfort, here are some common causes of shoulder pain for which you can seek treatment in Wauwatosa, WI:

Frozen Shoulder

Are you experiencing a painful loss of motion and a tightness of the shoulder joint? You might have a condition known as “frozen shoulder”, causing restriction in movement. This syndrome can occur if your arm has been in a cast or sling for a long time or if you have been bedridden. But more commonly this occurs in middle age females in the 40’s, 50’s and early 60’s as estrogen levels start to drop. You notice pain with simple activities like putting on your bra, washing your hair, or even putting on your shirt.

Arthritus

The most frequent kind of arthritis that affect the shoulder is osteoarthritis. This results in shoulder muscle weakness and pain, making it difficult to execute daily tasks.

Rarely, rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease that causes the immune system to target the membranes that surround the joints can also contribute to this pain.

Tendinitis

Tendinitis is inflammation in the shoulder joint. When tendons become inflamed over time, tendinitis will cause swelling and severe pain when you raise your arm.

Poor posture contributes to tendinitis because it changes the mechanics of your shoulders when you move it and causes tension and subsequent weakness.

Rotator cuff injuries

Shoulder soreness, arm weakness, difficulties reaching behind the back, and sleeping problems are all symptoms of rotator cuff injury.

You might be wondering, “Will a rotator cuff injury heal on its own?” Physical therapy can often help to relieve discomfort from rotator cuff injuries and improve strength without the need for surgery or injections. However, if surgery is required, physical therapy will be an important part of the recovery process to relieve rotator cuff pain.

Impingement

Impingement can be the culprit when you elevate your arm upward to a 90-degree angle or higher and experience pain in the front or top of the shoulder joint.

If left untreated this can lead to a rotator cuff injury, bone spurs or just significant pain and decreased mobility and strength. This is mainly due to poor posture or rotator weakness or injury. Our physical therapy clinic in Wauwatosa, WI can help you with both of these problems!
