Shoulder Injuries

The shoulder is enveloped by tough and resilient soft tissues that aid joint movement. Shoulder pain often stems from soft tissue injuries.

Dislocated shoulder surgery, if necessary, aims to stabilize the joint and prevent recurrent dislocations, ensuring long-term shoulder function.

Surgery is uncommon but may be recommended for persistent shoulder impingement when nonsurgical options do not relieve pain.

Fractures in the shoulder usually occur in the scapula (shoulder blade), clavicle (collarbone), or humerus (upper arm) bones.

Surgical and non-surgical treatments for clavicle fractures aim to restore shoulder strength and mobility during bone healing.

The majority of proximal humerus fractures can be treated non-surgically; however, there are certain cases that require surgical treatment.

Nonsurgical treatments are effective for scapula fractures, but surgery is necessary in certain cases for proper repair.

Dislocated shoulder treatment involves professional reduction, followed by pain management through nonsurgical approaches.

Frozen shoulder causes stiffness and pain; treatments include physiotherapy and, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
