Shoulder pain can arise from an injury or appear without any obvious cause, often becoming a stubborn and uncomfortable issue. Whether you’re experiencing a sharp ache or a dull, constant throb, shoulder pain can significantly affect your daily activities and mobility. It can result from various conditions, including rotator cuff injuries, tendonitis, frozen shoulder, or shoulder arthritis. This condition can impact people of all ages, making even simple tasks like reaching or lifting difficult.
Understanding the causes of shoulder pain and seeking effective treatments such as physiotherapy can help restore mobility and alleviate discomfort.
Some common reasons for shoulder pain include:
These muscles and tendons keep your shoulder stable and are critical to a healthy shoulder.
