Overview

• Because its the most mobile joint in the body,
  the shoulder joint is also the most susceptible
  to injury. However, not all pain is caused from
  the same thing. Only a medical professional can
  properly diagnose your shoulder issues, but the
  information below can help assist you in getting
  a general idea of what your particular problem
  may be prior to visiting your physician.

  of the four following categories
• A variety of arthritis

Arthritis

• Arthritis essentially boils down to inflammation
  in the joints that is painful, stiffening and
  restricts the joints movement. The most common
  type of arthritis found in the shoulders is
  called osteoarthritis, more commonly known as
  wear and tear arthritis. This type of arthritis
  sets in very gradually. Over time, it becomes
  more and more painful as the swelling, pain, and
  stiffness become more severe. Since this is a
  wear and tear condition, it typically doesnt
  begin to settle in until middle age.

Fracture

• Sometimes, people can fracture a bone and not
  even realize it. These fractures can cause both
  severe swelling and pain. If the fracture is near
  the shoulder joint often times it can be
  interpreted as a shoulder joint problem, when in
  actuality, it is a bone issue. While the cause in
  younger patients is usually a high-impact injury,
  such as a sport or motorcycle injury, with older
  patients, it could be something as simple as a
  slip and fall. If a shoulder problem occurs
  shortly after a fall, a fracture may very well be
  the culprit.

Joint Instability

• When the arm bone is forced out of the socket of
  the shoulder joint it loosens the connective
  tissues around the shoulder joint. Since these
  dislocations of the socket can be partial, they
  can sometimes occur without the individual being
  aware the joint has actually dislocated. However,
  dislocation can weaken, stretch or even tear the
  connective tissues, making the joint more
  susceptible to future dislocations or injuries.
  Repeated dislocations can also lead to arthritis.
