While shoulder injuries don’t seem intense, they’re extremely debilitating when you have one. You may lose your ability to do your job with even a relatively minor injury. On the more extreme side, they can lead to the loss of use of an entire side of your body.
Unfortunately, most shoulder injuries, including minor ones, don’t heal easily. Surgery doesn’t instantly make it better. You may also need to do months of physical therapy. And even after that, you may still have chronic pain and limited use.
Typical symptoms for many of the injuries listed above include pain, tenderness, stiffness, weakness, crepitus (crackling on movement), swelling, and tingling.
Three bones make up the shoulder: humerus (upper arm bone), scapula (shoulder blade), and clavicle (collar bone). Likewise, there are three joints: sternoclavicular, glenohumeral, and acromioclavicular.
The most common types of shoulder injuries that arise are soft tissue injuries (sprain/strain), dislocations, fractures, tendinitis, impingement, rotator cuff tears, and SLAP tears.
A sprain or strain of the shoulder will usually resolve over time. A dislocation occurs when the upper arm bone known as the humerus moves out of the joint. This usually results when a substantial force separates the ball joint from the socket (glenoid). This is also referred to as a separated shoulder.
Fractures are synonymous with a broken shoulder. Trauma can lead to a fracture of the glenoid or humerus. Fractures are classified as non-displaced or displaced.
In a non-displaced fracture, the broken pieces remain in close proximity to their usual position and immobilization in a sling while the injury heals is usually recommended. In a displaced fracture surgery is usually necessary.
Tendinitis is irritation or inflammation of a tendon. Impingement occurs when the rotator cuff comes into contact with the acromion. A SLAP tear occurs when the superior labrum – which is attached to the biceps – is damaged. Arthroscopic surgery is often necessary to repair a SLAP tear.
This is when the group of muscles and tendons that keep the ball of your arm in your socket get torn. Repetitive motion typically causes this injury.
Repeated overhead work such as that in construction or painting can lead to stiffness or tenderness and eventually loss of strength and sleep problems which characterize this injury.
This refers to a tear in the labrum, which is the thin muscle found where your shoulder and arm connect. Pain when lifting or holding your shoulder in specific positions results.
This injury occurs when your arm bone pops out of the socket. It’s intensely painful and can also cause numbness and tingling down your arm or neck.
Unlike other injuries, this one appears slowly over time. Basically, your shoulder loses range of motion and hurts any time you move it.
Just like with any other injury you experience, you should see a doctor as soon as you become aware of a shoulder injury. A quick diagnosis helps you recover and get back to normal faster.
Shoulder injuries are usually first diagnosed by patient history and on physical examination. Common tests for injuries include palpation, abduction, Apley scratch test, Neer’s sign, Hawkins’ test, Speed’s maneuver, and empty can test. A positive impingement sign will also demonstrate injury. Shoulder injuries are usually confirmed by undergoing an MRI.
