Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
The shoulder is a unique joint that allows for a wide range of motion, but this also makes it less stable than other joints. Injuries can happen because the upper arm’s ball is bigger than the shoulder socket. To help keep the shoulder in place, it relies on soft tissues like muscles, tendons, and ligaments. These tissues can be easily damaged from overuse, underuse, or accidents.
Dislocation
When the shoulder joint pops out of place, it can cause pain and limit movement.
Whiplash
A sudden jerking motion, like in a car accident, can cause the neck to whip back and forth. This can injure the muscles and ligaments, leading to neck pain.
Impingement Syndrome
When shoulder tissues get pinched, it can cause pain and make it hard to lift the arm.
Tendinosis
This is when the tendons in the shoulder become weak or damaged, often from overuse.
Rotator cuff tear
A tear in the shoulder’s rotator cuff can cause pain and make it difficult to move the arm.
Adhesive Capsulitis
(frozen shoulder)
This condition makes the shoulder stiff and painful, limiting its movement.
Fracture
A broken bone in the shoulder can cause severe pain and make it hard to move the arm.
Inflamed bursae
Swelling in the small fluid‒filled sacs that cushion the shoulder joint can lead to pain and discomfort.
Arthritis Inflammation
When the joints in the shoulder become inflamed and worn down, it can cause pain and stiffness.
