WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF SHOULDER PAIN AND INJURY?
Shoulder pain and injury is one of the most common causes of pain and disability, and it something we see and treat multiple times everyday here at our pain and injury clinic in Birmingham. This is due to the vast mobility the shoulder has, with long leverage. Pain and injury can be short local irritation through to significant levels of disability and poor quality of life. Most cases of shoulder pain, especially rotator cuff injury, are triggered by a combination of poor posture, overuse, repetitive strain, injury and inflammation to local structures. Severity can vary, but below are some examples of common causes of shoulder pain and injury.
COMMON TYPES OF SHOULDER PAIN
-
Soft tissue injury to muscles, tendons, ligaments
-
Rotator cuff damage
-
Neck spinal nerve referral
-
Shoulder bursitis
-
AC injury
-
Frozen shoulder
-
Shoulder joint arthritis
ACUTE VS CHRONIC SHOULDER PAIN
-
ACUTE PAIN is often due to direct trauma or injuries such as ligament tears, tendinitis, or sprains.
-
CHRONIC PAIN may be a results from progressive wear and tear or soft tissues or joints, repetitive strain, or degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis.
It is extremely important to be aware of more sinister causes of shoulder pain, like inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis, reactive arthritis, psoriatic arthritis...). Other important symptoms to be aware of are prolonged morning joint stiffness, increased swelling, multiple joint pain/swelling, fever, altered sensation or tingling down the arms, ongoing cramps, fatigue, weight loss and night pain.
WHAT ARE THE COMMON SHOULDER CONDITIONS WE TREAT?
At our Birmingham Shoulder Pain Clinics, we specialise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of shoulder pain issues and injuries using a wide range of treatments, including regenerative and nonsurgical therapies. Below is a list of some of the most common issues we address in our clinics across Birmingham and Warwickshire.
Acute or chronic injury of the rotator cuff muscles that surround and stabilise the shoulder joint. This results in inflammation, pain, tendinitis, poor shoulder function and tears.
This condition occurs when the bursa (small fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction) becomes inflamed. It commonly affects the knees, shoulders, hips, or elbows.
Often poor shoulder function and repetitive activity can cause impingement of the rotator cuff tendons and the sub-acromial bursa, leading to pain and disfunction.
Ligaments are strong connective tissues that stabilise joints. Sprains or tears can be common in traumatic injuries, disloctaions, or sports-related activities.
Gradual progressive cartilage degeneration causing pain, stiffness, swelling and reduced functional mobility.
Inflammation and pain at the front of the shoulder due to repetitive irritation of the bicep tendon at the front of the shoulder.

Fortunately, many cases of shoulder pain we see and treat here at Dynamic Regenerative Medicine in Birmingham and Warwickshire are treated successfully with conservative treatment therapy. We are very proud of the fact that less that 10% of our shoulder pain patients are considered for invasive therapeutic treatment. However, this does depend of the severity of causes. If patients do not respond adequately to conservative treatment or the problem is worsening, then consideration for injection therapy may be discussed. If patients are showing signs of rotator cuff damage or joint osteoarthritis then we may discuss the need for an MRI scanning, to get diagnostic conformation of what it is that may be causing the concern.
If an inflammatory or rheumatological cause of your shoulder pain is suspected, then you may be asked to get a lab panel and blood test done to check for raised inflammatory markers - ESR, CRP and maybe immunological makers.
Referral for Specialist Imaging or Private MRI Scans
At Dynamic Regenerative Medicine, our shoulder pain clinic in Birmingham can provide ultrasound imaging to examine for signs of tissue damage and inflammation. But, occasionally, we may require a more in-depth analysis. When a private scan is considered, we will put through a referral to our local Imaging Centre. You will then be contacted and booked in within 5-10 days. Following your scan, the report will be completed by our colleague Dr David Beale (Consultant Radiologist). This report will then come back to us and will we then interpret the images and discuss with you then best course of treatment for your complaint.
In some cases, where surgical opinion is required, we may refer to our trusted colleagues Mr Samir Massoud (Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon).
