SHOULDER PAIN TREATMENT IN EDGBASTON

CONDITIONS THAT CAUSE SHOULDER PAIN

The conditions of shoulder pain we treat in The Podiatry and physiotherapy Clinics in Harborne, Edgbaston are as follows:

1.     Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) In Edgbaston

It usually begins with pain and stiffness that gradually worsens. The capsule thickens and tightens with frozen shoulder, making it difficult to move.

2.     Rotator Cuff Tear and Tendinopathy In Edgbaston

A tear in the group of four tendons that stabilise your shoulder joint and allow you to lift and rotate your arms is known as a rotator cuff injury (your rotator cuff).  It's a common injury in sports like baseball weight lifting swimming golf and tennis as well as vocational activities like painting and window cleaning. It normally happens over time as a result of normal wear and tear, or if you keep repeating the same arm action. However, if you fall on your arm or carry anything heavy, it can happen suddenly.

3.     Osteoarthritis In Edgbaston

When the cartilage that covers the tops of bones, known as articular cartilage, degenerates or wears down, it causes osteoarthritis.

4.     Subacromial Subdeltoid Bursitis In Edgbaston

Subacromial bursitis is a severe shoulder pain that worsens with movement. Early therapy can help you avoid long-term joint problems. These are thin cushions that sit between your bones and your body's working parts, such as muscles and tendons. This is most common in bursae surrounding joints that repeat the same motions over and over, such as your hips, elbows, and knees.

5.     Rehabilitation after Shoulder Dislocation In Edgbaston

The shoulder is the body's most movable joint, and it's also the most likely to dislocate. Shoulder dislocations are most common in contact sports, although they can also happen in daily incidents, such as falls. A dislocated shoulder usually necessitates the aid of a medical practitioner in Edgbaston to reposition the joint. After the joint has been straightened, a physiotherapist in Edgbaston oversees shoulder therapy and assists the patient in avoiding re-injury.

6.     Rehabilitation after shoulder replacement In Edgbaston

Shoulder replacement (arthroplasty) is a procedure that involves replacing all or part of the joint in the shoulder. After whole or partial shoulder replacement surgery, physiotherapy in Edgbaston assist patients in returning to their previous levels of activity.

What Is Shoulder Arthroplasty?

Shoulder replacement (arthroplasty) is a surgical technique used when alternative therapies, such as medicine or physiotherapy, have failed to control or relieve pain, or when the shoulder can no longer be used. A consultation with an orthopedic surgeon in Edgbaston can help you decide whether this operation is right for you or not. Your Edgbaston Physio will discuss more about the rehabilitation exercises on our blog about “Rehabilitation after shoulder replacement”.
