shoulder injury

A shoulder injury involves damage to the structures that make up the shoulder joint, such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, or the cartilage that cushions the bones. Common issues include rotator cuff tears, tendinitis, bursitis, or dislocations. These injuries can result from overuse, sudden trauma, or repetitive movements, causing pain, weakness, or limited range of motion. Treatment varies from rest and physical therapy to injections or surgery, depending on the injury's severity. Proper diagnosis and management are important to restore shoulder function and prevent future problems.
