Your shoulder is one of the most-complex joints in your body. It’s the most mobile joint you have, but it also has to be very strong and stable to function properly. There are multiple ligaments that tie the joint together and many muscles/tendons that move the shoulder through its available range of motion.
When everything functions properly the shoulder joint is an amazing structure.
However, due to the complex nature of the shoulder there are many things that can potentially go wrong with it. Tendonitis, arthritis, bursitis, labral tears, shoulder impingement, and rotator cuff problems are just a few of the most-common shoulder issues that I deal with as a physical therapist.
These shoulder conditions can be very painful and interfere with many of the activities that we go through on a daily basis.
Each of these shoulder problems is treated a little differently, so it’s important to figure out exactly what’s causing your pain. Fortunately there are many tests and other evaluation tools you can actually perform right at home to help determine the most-likely cause of your shoulder pain.
In this video, I’ll walk you through some of the best, simplest tests you can perform on your own to determine the cause of your shoulder symptoms. You can then use these findings to help guide you to the best treatment plan to help alleviate your pain.
Here’s the thing - this is a LOT of information and there are a LOT of tests to cover. My goal is to provide you with as comprehensive a video as possible while not boring you with the super small details. That said, this is a longer video, but my goal was to provide you with the best video possible to hopefully help diagnose your shoulder pain.
