If you're struggling with severe pain and loss of movement in your shoulder, arthritis might not be the only thing to blame. We look at how a rotator cuff tear can turn into rotator cuff arthroplasty, and we look at how the condition can be treated.
It is easy to push nagging pain to the back of your mind and hope it will just go away, but shoulder pain must be taken seriously to avoid conditions with lengthy recovery times.
The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body, but when it is dislocated or repeatedly stressed and injured, the joint can become loose and painful. This shoulder instability can be treated with physical therapy or addressed with surgery.
