What are the most common Shoulder Problems ?

• Arthritis: It can be cause by a tear of the cartilage that is often treated with ibuprofen or aspirin. It can also be an autoimmune disease causing one or more joints to become inflamed(may need physical therapy and medicine ).
• Dislocation: It occurs when the upper arm pops out of the socket. To treat it, you must see a professional that will put it back in the socket. You will need rest, ice 3 or 4 times a day, maybe wearing a sling and exercise to improve range of motion, strengthen muscles, and prevent injury that you can learn in: Shoulder Flexibility Solution.
• Fracture: Fractures are often caused by a fall or blow to the shoulder. You have to see a doctor to treat it. The doctor will put the bones to their place to promote maximum healing. Exercise to strengthen the shoulder and restore movement will be very important after the bones heals.
• Frozen shoulder: It can have many causes -Lack of use due to chronic pain – Rheumatic disease that is getting worse – Bands of tissue that grow in the joint and restrict motion – Lack of the fluid that helps the shoulder joint move. You can treat it with medicine that will reduce the shoulder pain and reduce the shoulder swelling. Gentle shoulder exercises can be done and if you can’t you may want to think surgery.

It is also caused by playing sports that overuse the shoulder or by jobs with frequent overhead reaching. Can be treated with ibuprofen or aspirin.
