Common Shoulder Injuries

1. Shoulder Dislocation

Shoulder dislocation occurs when the upper arm bone (humerus) is forcibly separated from the shoulder joint’s socket (glenoid). It is one of the most frequently dislocated major joints in the body, often resulting from a significant impact or force.

Symptoms:

  • Intense shoulder pain

  • Swelling and bruising

  • Visible deformity of the shoulder

  • Limited mobility and a feeling of instability

Causes:

  • Sports injuries

  • Falls onto an outstretched arm

  • High-impact trauma, such as during motor vehicle accidents

Treatment:

  • Immediate immobilization with a sling

  • Manual reduction to reposition the joint

  • Pain relief with ice packs and anti-inflammatory medications

  • Rehabilitation exercises to restore strength and mobility

  • Surgery in cases of recurring dislocations or ligament damage

2. Shoulder Separation (AC Joint Separation)

A shoulder separation occurs when the ligaments connecting the collarbone (clavicle) to the shoulder blade (scapula) are torn or partially torn. This injury typically involves the acromioclavicular (AC) joint.

Symptoms:

  • Pain at the top of the shoulder

  • Swelling and bruising

  • Limited shoulder movement

  • A visible bump or deformity near the AC joint

Causes:

  • Direct impact to the shoulder, such as during contact sports

  • Falls directly onto the shoulder

Treatment:

  • Rest and immobilization with a sling

  • Ice packs to reduce swelling

  • Physical therapy to rebuild strength

  • Surgery for severe ligament tears or persistent instability

3. Bursitis

Shoulder bursitis is the inflammation of the bursa sacs, which cushion and reduce friction between bones and soft tissues in the shoulder. It often develops alongside tendonitis or impingement syndrome.

Symptoms:

  • Shoulder pain, especially during movement

  • Swelling and tenderness

  • Reduced range of motion

Causes:

  • Repetitive overhead activities or motions

  • Direct trauma to the shoulder

  • Underlying conditions like arthritis

Treatment:

  • Rest and avoiding aggravating activities

  • Application of ice packs to reduce inflammation

  • Anti-inflammatory medications

  • Corticosteroid injections for severe pain

  • Physical therapy to improve flexibility and strength

4. Rotator Cuff Tear

A rotator cuff tear involves the partial or complete tearing of one or more rotator cuff tendons, often due to overuse, aging, or sudden trauma.

Symptoms:

  • Sharp or persistent shoulder pain

  • Weakness when lifting or rotating the arm

  • Cracking or popping sounds during movement

Causes:

  • Overhead repetitive activities

  • Aging-related tendon degeneration

  • Falls or collisions

Treatment:

  • Rest and ice packs to manage pain

  • Anti-inflammatory medications

  • Physical therapy to restore shoulder function

  • Surgery for significant or complete tendon tears
