Most common shoulder pain causes include rotator cuff tendinitis and adhesive capsulitis or frozen shoulder. Shoulder Pain mainly includes- Shoulder pain from neck l Shoulder pain joint l Shoulder pain left
Rotator Cuff Tendinitis
Rotator cuff tendinitis is the inflammation of the connective tissues that help the shoulder to move. The condition is also known as impingement syndrome. This type of tendonitis can be extremely painful and may prevent a person from performing daily activities.
Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a painful condition in which the movement of the shoulder becomes limited. Frozen shoulder occurs when the strong connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint known as the shoulder joint capsule becomes stiff, inflamed, and causing chronic pain. The condition is called “frozen” shoulder because the more pain that is felt, the less likely the shoulder will be used. Lack of use causes the shoulder capsule to thicken and becomes tight, making the shoulder even more difficult to move — it is “frozen” in its position.
Frozen Shoulder is a painful and disabling condition that often causes great frustration for patients due to slow recovery. The movement of the shoulder is restricted. In this condition pain is usually constant, sometimes worsens during at night, and especially when the weather is colder.
Unless you’ve had a serious injury or are experiencing abrupt, constant pain, you can usually cure your shoulder pain without seeing a Shoulder Pain Specialist in Pune.
If the pain remains after two weeks of self-treatment, you should consult a Shoulder Specialist in Pimpri Chinchwad.
You should also consult your Shoulder Specialist as soon as possible if you have any of the following symptoms:
- Pain in your thighs
- Unwell or feel feverish
- Severe pain in both shoulders
These are symptoms of polymyalgia rheumatic, which requires immediate treatment.
Medicine/Pharmacotherapy: One of the easiest techniques for pain control is using conservative care (e.g., resting the impacted part, using hot/cold packs) along with medicines, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and adding a neuropathic agent in case of chronification of pain.
Injections: Intralesional injections in the impacted part can provide significant pain relief in cases where medicines haven’t worked.
Such interventional techniques should be followed by regular stretching and exercises for better results.
Platelet Rich Plasma(PRP) therapy– It involves injecting platelets from the patient’s blood to rebuild a damaged tendon or cartilage. It has been successful in not only relieving the pain but also in jumpstarting the healing process. The patient’s blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge for 15 minutes to separate the platelets. The platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the damaged portion of the tendon or cartilage.
