Common Causes, Symptoms & Risk Factors of Shoulder Pain
Impingement Syndrome (Swimmer's Shoulder): this occurs when the space narrows through which some of your rotator cuff tendons pass (beneath a bone in the top of your shoulder called the acromion), compressing the tendons. Bursae (friction reducing fluid filled sacs) may also be involved.
Sports Injury: rotator cuff strains, ligament sprains, biceps tendonitis, and other soft tissue shoulder conditions commonly occur as a result of a sports injury.
Adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen Shoulder): this condition causes a progressive and significant loss of motion; it usually occurs following some sort of injury or infection at the shoulder.
Shoulder Subluxation/Dislocation: the top end of your upper arm bone becomes partially or fully dislodged from the shoulder joint.
Symptoms of these conditions can range greatly and affect men, women, and children alike. They can be gradual or sudden and can worsen with activity, time of day, or movement. Pain is often dull, achy, or sharp. In severe cases, a person may have trouble moving their arm, lifting objects, or even performing basic daily tasks.
You may be more at risk for shoulder pain if you experience:
Repetitive overhead use
Poor body mechanics and posture, especially while
Acute trauma (sports, auto accident, work injury)
A prior history of shoulder injury (since scar tissue, weakness, and instability can develop)
Sometimes there is no obvious cause of your shoulder pain, or it may be referred from another area of the body (such as a pinched nerve in the neck).
