- Tendon issue (inflammation, tendinitis or bursitis) or a tendon tear (‘rotator cuff tear’)
- Instability
- Arthritis
- Fracture (broken bone)
Physiotherapy is the first line management option for these conditions and should often be the first port of call to assess, diagnose and start treatment including, an effective exercise programme.
Other much less common causes of shoulder pain are tumours, infection, and nerve-related problems. These conditions often give more severe symptoms. Prompt diagnosis by the correct medical professional can help treat these conditions.
Here at Grosvenor Street Physiotherapy, we advise early assessment and diagnosis to help facilitate the right treatment to enable you to recover in the timeliest manner. Following a thorough examination, we provide appropriate hands-on treatment (as indicated), as well as a bespoke education and exercise programme to begin your rehabilitation journey, aid recovery and promote self-management.
