SHOULDER INJURIES: Causes & Symptoms
Shoulder pain and injuries are very common, affecting athletes, working professionals, and older adults alike. Since the shoulder joint allows the widest range of motion in the body, it is also more prone to instability and injury. These issues can severely limit daily activities, from lifting objects to even simple arm movements.
