Common Causes of Shoulder Pain

Most people do not think much about their shoulders unless they experience mild or nagging pain in that part of the body. Even the simplest actions, like combing your hair and brushing your teeth, can be difficult when you suffer from shoulder pain.

The shoulder, which is a ball-and-socket joint, provides the most versatile range of motion in the body. This versatility of movement also makes the shoulder vulnerable to a number of injuries.

One of the most common issues with the shoulder joint is Tendonitis or inflammation of the tendon in the rotator cuff. This problem can limit your ability to rotate your shoulder because it is the tendon that enables the circular motion of the joint.

Another common cause of shoulder pain is inflammation of the subacromial bursa, a sac of fluid under the upper part of the shoulder. This inflammation can cause pain when you perform activities like painting or lifting objects and just anything that makes you lift your shoulders, particularly over your head.

In addition to rotator cuff tendonitis, several other factors can lead to shoulder pain and limit mobility. The list of reasons includes:

Heart attack
Sprained shoulder
Impingement
Osteoarthritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Impingement

Shoulder dislocation
Bursitis or joint inflammation
Fracture of the arm
Fractured collarbone
Brachial Plexus injury
Cervical Radiculopathy

Polymyalgia Rheumatica
Ruptured tendon
Ruptured cartilage
Thoracic outlet syndrome
Avascular Necrosis or death of the bone tissue due to poor blood flow

JOGO’s Treatment Plan

Feeling helpless with nagging shoulder pain? Seeking non-invasive solutions to relieve and regain complete shoulder mobility? Your search ends with JOGO’s non-surgical treatment for shoulder pain.

Our therapy involves using an innovative digital hand-held device to monitor real-time muscular activity. Using the device's visual feedback, our experts train the brain to selectively relax taut muscles. Essentially, this process adjusts the pain signalling circuits responsible for how the brain perceives pain.

The pain-signalling circuits of your body adjust with each therapy session, reducing the pain to a point where it no longer exists. The JOGO device is an efficient alternative to pain medication such as analgesics, NSAIDs (non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs), painful surgeries, and physiotherapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the different treatment options available for shoulder pain?

Depending on the severity and causative factors, shoulder pain can be treated with:

Physiotherapy
Occupational therapy
Surgery
Shoulder immobiliser or a sling
NSAIDS ( Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Medications)

Minor shoulder pain can be treated by giving it ample rest for several days and avoiding unnecessary movements that may worsen it.

When should I seek medical help for shoulder pain?

It is unnecessary to seek medical attention for mild shoulder pain that does not last more than a few minutes. However, you should seek immediate medical care if you experience the following symptoms after an injury to your shoulder:

Severe shoulder pain with fever
Inability to move your shoulder
Bruising that lasts for longer than usual
Heat and tenderness around the shoulder joint
Prolonged discomfort and pain

Shoulder pain may also occur without any injuries. Acute pain in the shoulder region accompanied by breathlessness, tightness in the chest, dizziness, excessive sweating, and pain in the jaws and neck could signal a heart attack. In such situations, you should NEVER delay reaching out for medical help.

You should also seek your doctor’s help if you:

Experience a sudden pull in your shoulder joint.
Fall unexpectedly and hurt your shoulder or the area around it.
Experience a certain weakness when you move your arm.

Discomfort or pain after a fall can indicate a torn tendon or injured rotator cuff requiring surgery. A severe shoulder pain accompanied by pain in the thighs and fever may indicate Polymyalgia Rheumatica, which also needs immediate attention.
