Shoulder Pain
Discover how MVMT Health is helping people overcome chronic shoulder pain.
Do you often feel a nagging ache in your shoulder?
Is lifting your arm starting to feel like a weightlifting challenge?
If so, you're not alone. Shoulder pain is super common.
Explore the top three reasons your shoulder might be giving you a hard time and discover the associated diagnosis and pain patterns.
1. Rotator Cuff Injuries
The rotator cuff, that group of muscles and tendons keeping your shoulder in its socket, can often be the culprit behind your discomfort. Overuse or acute injuries can cause the tendons to become inflamed or even tear, leading to what we call 'rotator cuff syndrome'. This condition presents with deep, dull pain often exacerbated by lifting your arm above your head or sleeping on the affected side.
2. Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)
Ever felt like your shoulder just doesn't want to move? You might be dealing with adhesive capsulitis, more commonly known as a 'frozen shoulder'. This condition is characterized by stiffness and pain that gradually worsens over time. The pain is typically constant, even at rest, and you'll feel it deep in the shoulder, worsening with attempted movement.
3. Shoulder Impingement
When tissues in your shoulder get trapped or 'impinged' between bones, it's as uncomfortable as it sounds. This impingement can lead to persistent, sharp pain when lifting your arm, often described as a 'catch' or 'pinch' at the top of your shoulder movement.
Let's talk about shockwave therapy. Shockwave therapy sounds like something from a sci-fi movie, but it's a special kind of treatment that doctors use to help people get better from chronic shoulder pain. It uses sound waves - yes, just like the ones you hear! - but these are super powerful and can help your body's healing process.
How Does Shockwave Therapy Help with Shoulder Pain?
Think of shockwave therapy like a team of tiny superheroes zapping the "bad guys" causing your shoulder pain. These sound waves can reach the root of the problem and promote healing, helping you get back to shooting hoops or ruling the video game world in no time!
So, if you're tired of shoulder pain pushing you around, shockwave therapy might just be your new best friend! Remember, there's no need to suffer when help is at hand. Say goodbye to shoulder pain and hello to a happier, healthier you!
