  1. What Causes Shoulder Pain?

  2. Frozen Shoulder It is a condition when the connective tissue in the shoulder becomes tightened and thickens around the shoulder joint. Moreover, frozen shoulders are quite common after an injury that restricts shoulder movement for some time. It is often referred to as adhesive capsulitis.

  3. Dislocated Shoulder A sports injury generally causes it. In this condition, the humerus pops out of the glenoid cavity, causing the initial pain. Moreover, it can also be accompanied by a lack of sensation if nerves are affected. Unfortunately, a dislocated shoulder can cause repeated dislocations.

  4. Rotator Cuff Injury Rotator cuff injury generally ranges from minor irritation to a full-on tear caused by a steady muscle worsening due to mechanical use. Moreover, it can occur with a sudden trauma such as a car accident, making it one of the common causes of shoulder pain.

  5. Pinched Nerve Studies reveal that mechanical issues in your shoulder or neck can result in pinched or impinged nerves. The pressure on any nerve, be it the small nerve or the main branching, can cause severe pain, tingling, numbness in the hands, shoulder, or arms.

  6. Arthritis As per studies, around 54 million adults are affected by arthritis in the United States. Like osteoarthritis, it can be a wear-and-tear condition or related to an autoimmune disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis. Regardless of the cause, it can cause pain and inflammation in your shoulder, restricting movements and limiting the shoulder's range of motion.

  7. Tendonitis It is a specific kind of irritation and inflammation in either the biceps or rotator cuff tendons. It is generally experienced by individuals who have jobs with repetitive motions. Moreover, professional athletes who repeat the same motion throughout their game suffer from this condition. Tendon injuries are quite painful and slow-healing.

  8. Shoulder Bursitis Shoulder bursitis is developed primarily when the fluid-filled shoulder capsule becomes inflamed or irritated. It occurs most commonly where the humerus connects in the glenoid cavity. Unlike other conditions, it can increase to the point where the shoulder movement becomes almost impossible. Moreover, this condition can also lead to a frozen shoulder.
