How We Treat Shoulder Pain
The shoulder is one of the most mobile and complex joints in the body, and one of the most vulnerable to injury. From overuse to arthritis and traumatic events, many conditions can cause shoulder pain, weakness, stiffness, or instability. Our team has years of experience diagnosing and treating shoulder issues in patients of all ages.
Some of the most common conditions we treat include:
- Rotator cuff tears and tendonitis
- Labral tears and joint instability
- Shoulder impingement syndrome
- Arthritis of the shoulder joint (including osteoarthritis)
- Dislocations and separations from sports or trauma
- Frozen shoulder and adhesive capsulitis
- Fractures and traumatic injuries
Once we diagnose the cause of your shoulder pain, we’ll develop a treatment plan built just for you. Many patients improve significantly with physical or occupational therapy , which focuses on restoring strength, improving shoulder mechanics, and preventing future injury. Our pain management team may also recommend minimally invasive treatments that can provide lasting improvement without surgery.
For more advanced conditions, we offer expert surgical care , including arthroscopic shoulder surgery and shoulder replacement surgery. These procedures are performed by our experienced orthopedic surgeons and followed by a personalized rehab program to ensure the best possible recovery.
At The Center for Bone & Joint Disease, we bring all aspects of care together so you don’t have to navigate recovery on your own. Whether your goal is to get back to sports, work, or simple everyday tasks, we’re here to help you move better and live with less pain.
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes shoulder pain?
Shoulder pain can result from injuries (like rotator cuff or labral tears), repetitive strain, arthritis, or instability. A full evaluation—including physical exam and imaging—helps us identify the cause and the best treatment path.
Can shoulder pain be treated without surgery?
Absolutely. Most shoulder conditions respond well to conservative care like physical therapy, rest, and targeted injections. Surgery is only recommended if those approaches don’t provide sufficient relief.
What is arthroscopic shoulder surgery?
This minimally invasive surgery uses small incisions and a tiny camera to diagnose and repair damage inside the shoulder. It’s commonly used for rotator cuff repairs, impingement, and labral injuries, and typically allows for faster recovery and less post-op pain.
How do I schedule an appointment with an orthopedic shoulder doctor near me?
