If you suffer from shoulder pain, you know that it doesn’t take long for everyday activities to become painful. When something as simple as reaching for an item from a kitchen cabinet, lifting a child, or throwing a ball becomes impossible to do without pain, it’s time to get help.
Shoulder pain can be caused by inflammation and dysfunction of the structures around the shoulder joint such as: shoulder bursitis, shoulder tendonitis, impingement syndrome or rotator cuff muscles and their tendons.
It is also possible that shoulder pain can be felt from a problem elsewhere in the body such as: neck, nerve, upper back and even the diaphragm!
