The Effects of Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain is unique because it can debilitate the use of your arm. This can affect everything from daily tasks to your performance on the job. In addition to causing pain and discomfort, shoulder pain can limit your range of motion, thereby limiting many of the activities you enjoy on a daily basis. It’s crucial to seek treatment before your pain becomes too severe.

Shoulder Anatomy

To understand your pain, it helps to know a little about the anatomy of your shoulders:

Rotator Cuff. Tendons connect bone to bone. The rotator cuff is comprised of four tendons in the shoulder.
Joints. The shoulder is made up of two joints—the glenohumeral joint and acromioclavicular joint.
Scapula. Also known as the shoulder blade, the scapula connects the shoulder to your collar bone.

Common Types of Shoulder Pain

Surrounded by muscle, bursa, and other tissue that’s prone to inflammation, shoulder pain can come from a variety of sources. Since the shoulder is a complex joint with multiple parts, shoulder pain comes in a variety of forms. These are some of the most common conditions related to the shoulder:

Calcific Tendonitis
Frozen Shoulder
Bicep Tendonitis
Bicep Tendon Rupture
Shoulder Osteoarthritis
AC Separation
Dislocated Shoulder
SLAP Tears

Is It Time To Seek Treatment?

Temporary shoulder pain may not warrant a doctor visit, but when the pain becomes consistent and begins to impact your daily life, it’s important to seek medical help. Other signs that it’s time to seek treatment include:

Degraded range of movement
Inability to use your arm
Decrease in motor skills
Pain is becoming worse
You’re unsure of the cause of your shoulder pain
It’s accompanied by other unexpected symptoms, like headaches or neck pain
