Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can come on suddenly or build up over time. Here are some of the common issues we see in clinic:
- Rotator cuff injuries – Often caused by lifting, reaching, or repetitive strain.
- Frozen shoulder – Also known as adhesive capsulitis, this causes stiffness and restricted movement.
- Tendonitis or bursitis – Inflammation in soft tissues that support the shoulder joint.
- Overuse injuries – Common in manual work, sports, or repetitive activities.
- Osteoarthritis – Wear and tear in the joint leading to stiffness and discomfort.
- Nerve impingement – Pain that travels from the neck into the shoulder and arm.
