Understanding Shoulder Pain

‍

Shoulder pain can arise from a variety of conditions, often limiting your ability to move, lift, or sleep comfortably. Common causes include:

• Rotator cuff injuries
• Bursitis or tendon inflammation
• Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
• Impingement syndrome

These conditions can lead to stiffness, weakness, and persistent discomfort, especially with overhead or repetitive movements.
