Shoulder pain is a feeling of discomfort at your shoulder joint, a ball-and-socket joint located between the humerus in your arm and your scapula—the joint consists of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones. Shoulder pain might result from an injury, age-related wear and tear, or a disease. Simple treatments at Superior Physical Medicine can offer you relief.
Signs and symptoms of a shoulder injury include:
If shoulder pain is severe or doesn’t go away on its own, see the team at Superior Physical Medicine for an evaluation.
The cause of shoulder pain isn’t always evident right away. It can result from arthritis, tendinitis, a car accident or sports injury, bursitis, tendon tears, impingement, instability, or a fracture.
To find out what’s causing shoulder discomfort, experts at Superior Physical Medicine, discuss your medical history, and symptoms. They complete a physical exam and use blood tests, X-rays, MRIs, other imaging procedures, or additional diagnostic tests to determine the root cause of your pain.
To reduce shoulder pain and treat its cause, your provider might recommend one or more of the following solutions:
An onsite physical therapist at Superior Physical Medicine helps you strengthen and stretch tissues in your shoulder joint to reduce pain and prevent re-injury.
Regenerative medicine can repair tissues naturally by stimulating your body’s innate healing response. PRP uses platelets from plasma in your blood. Stem cells, sourced from other parts of your body or donated tissues from a lab, regenerate into healthy tissues within your shoulder.
Hyaluronic acid and trigger point injections help reduce shoulder discomfort without surgery, pain, or downtime.
Superior Physical Medicine offers chiropractic adjustments to relieve shoulder, neck, head, or back pain in your body using a series of manual manipulation techniques.
Massage is another holistic shoulder pain treatment in which your massage therapist places manual pressure on deep tissue layers to stimulate healing.
Naturopathic treatments for shoulder pain include homeopathic supplements, dietary counseling, CBD, and other nature-based modalities.
Experts at Superior Physical Medicine can refer you to orthopedic specialists in the case of a severe shoulder injury that requires surgery to fully repair joint structure or function.
