physiotherapy services for​ Shoulder

Shoulder pain is a frequent complaint and shoulder physiotherapy might be recommended following surgery/injury for rehabilitation.

 

The shoulder is a ball and socket joint that is the confluence the humerus (upper arm bone), the scapula (shoulder blade) and the clavicle (collarbone). These three major bones join in the ball and socket type of joint help and move the arm around and within the shoulder joint.

There are several causes of shoulder pain like overhead activities, swimming, throwing a baseball that might lead to pinching of the rotator cuff or bicep’s tendons. Sometimes, poor posture can also exert strain and result in shoulder pain. Trauma such as automobile accidents may injure the shoulder and shoulder pain may occur. Sometimes, the cause of shoulder pain may not be an obvious one.

 

Common shoulder problems include

 

  • Rotator Cuff Tendonitis – A rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that move the shoulder and help support. While the arm is moved their role is to keep the ball of the arm bone. The rotator cuff tendons connect to the arm bone within a place which lies under a prominence of the shoulder blade. The joints can get pinched under this bone and be sore and inflamed.

 

  • Biceps Tendonitis – Biceps Tendinitis is an inflammatory condition of the biceps tendon, causing pain. The biceps tendon is the tendon associated with the biceps muscle and made of 2 parts – the long head; the short head. The long head of the biceps is more commonly affected by tendinitis as the tendon from the muscle runs up the length of the arm and attaches to the rim of cartilage and the shoulder blade in the shoulder joint. Biceps tendinitis results when forces are applied across the tendon, including tension, compression, or rubbing. With repetitive stress, the tendons become irritated, swollen, and painful. 

 

  • Shoulder Bursitis – A bursa is a fluid-filled sac which helps bones glide over one another. A shoulder bursa is located in the shoulder joint between the shoulder blade and bone. This bursa may get pinched from the shoulder. Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, is a condition in which the shoulder movement gets restricted and debilitating. If frozen shoulder physiotherapy is not taken timely, it results in strength loss and pain.

 

  • Shoulder Fracture – A shoulder fracture may result due to any significant injury or fall. Falling on an outstretched arm is a cause of a shoulder break. The humerus, the scapula, and even the collarbone, or a mix of all three might be hurt as an outcome.

If there is any specific trigger eg. Arthritis, treating arthritis and managing its cause may help. Adhering to exercises and shoulder physiotherapy will also help, but one needs to consult an orthopedic surgeon if the pain is not improving after about two weeks.

 

  • Medication – Anti-inflammatories and painkillers such as aspirin and paracetamol may help and one must see the doctor for assessing the condition and prescribing the right medicines and physiotherapy. It is imperative to take the medication in the recommended dose and time and to follow the exercise routines. Anti-inflammatory lotions and medicines are available at the pharmacist to take care of the basic pain and can be tried basis doctor’s advice.  One should not take aspirin or ibuprofen if pregnant or have an ulcer or asthma without the advice of health care provider or pharmacist as medicines may have side-effects which need to be factored while any medicine is being prescribed.

 

  • Frozen Shoulder Physiotherapy  – In case mobility is impacted and shoulder feels frozen then one must consult GP. Frozen shoulder physiotherapy treatment will enable an increase in strength and endurance and helps to manage pain. A physiotherapist will assist to understand the problem and can offer many remedies to regain mobility to perform regular activities.

 

  • Rest and Exercise – One must aim for a balance between should action and relaxation. As one starts the exercise, one must start small and gradually pace up. Attempt to avoid painful movements, particularly those that require arm over shoulder height. It is very important to stay active, even if that means keeping an eye out on how much!

 

  • Posture – Do not sit leaning forward with an arm held. This position could make the issue worse, particularly if a few of this pain is radiating from the neck. When sitting, keep a pillow or cushion together along with the arms behind back.
