Shoulder Pain

Understanding Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain is a common issue that can result from injury, overuse, or age-related degeneration. Because the shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body, even minor conditions can significantly affect your ability to perform daily activities. At SpineLUX Pain & Ortho, we specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of shoulder problems with both non-surgical and advanced interventional care.

Causes and Symptoms

Common causes of shoulder pain include:

  • Rotator cuff tears or tendinitis
  • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
  • Shoulder impingement syndrome
  • Arthritis or joint degeneration
  • Bursitis
  • Labral tears
  • Dislocation or instability
  • Fractures or trauma
     

Typical symptoms include:

  • Pain with movement or when lying on the affected side
     
  • Stiffness or loss of range of motion
     
  • Weakness when lifting or rotating the arm
     
  • Clicking, popping, or catching sensations
     
  • Swelling or tenderness around the joint

How Shoulder Pain Is Diagnosed

At SpineLUX, your shoulder evaluation may include:

  • Physical exam: Testing joint movement, muscle strength, and stability
     
  • Medical history: Understanding your activity level, injuries, or repetitive motion exposure
     
  • Imaging tests: X-rays for joint health, MRIs for soft tissue damage, ultrasound for dynamic assessment
     
  • Orthopedic testing: Specialized maneuvers to pinpoint specific tendon or labral injuries

Treatment Options for Shoulder Pain
