WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF SHOULDER PAIN?
Shoulder pain can develop for a variety of reasons and is often linked to irritation within the muscles, tendons or joints surrounding the shoulder complex.
Some of the most common causes of shoulder pain include:
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Frozen shoulder
- Shoulder impingement
- Tendon irritation
- Sports injuries
- Poor posture
- Reduced upper back mobility
- Gym overload
- Repetitive lifting
- Neck-related shoulder pain
Rotator Cuff Injuries
The rotator cuff muscles help stabilise and control the shoulder joint. These tissues commonly become irritated through gym training, sport, repetitive lifting or age-related overload.
Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder causes significant stiffness and pain, often making it difficult to lift the arm or reach behind your back.
Shoulder Impingement
Pain lifting the arm overhead or reaching sideways can sometimes be related to irritation within the shoulder joint.
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF SHOULDER PAIN?
Symptoms of shoulder pain can vary depending on the underlying cause but commonly include:
- Pain lifting the arm
- Pain reaching overhead
- Weakness in the shoulder
- Pain sleeping on one side
- Clicking or catching sensations
- Stiffness and reduced mobility
- Pain during gym exercises
- Shoulder pain during golf or racket sports
- Difficulty dressing
- Pain reaching behind your back
Some people experience sharp pain during movement, while others notice a gradual loss of strength and mobility over time.
