The Different Types of Shoulder Injuries

shoulder injuries

The prospect of losing your mobility is something that is a little scary to all of us. Maybe you’ve injured your shoulder recently and are experiencing pain and a reduced range of motion. If you have been having problems and are seeking shoulder injuries treatment, you really need to get things checked out before the situation grows worse. Why not contact the experts at Angelo Mattalino, MD and schedule an initial consultation?

Shoulder Injuries are Common

The shoulder is one of the most commonly injured joints in the body. It can be injured through sports such as football, ice hockey, basketball, and baseball. Your shoulder is also a prime candidate for over-use injuries, repetitive motion injuries, and joint degradation from arthritis. The different types of shoulder injuries and the treatments depend on the nature and extent of the injury. Angelo Mattalino, MD experts have a great deal of experience in diagnosing and performing shoulder injuries treatments to help patients return to normal.

Don’t Ignore These Signs

  • Shoulder stiffness – inability to rotate your arm into normal positions
  • Feelings of instability or weakness of the shoulder joint – feeling like your shoulder could “pop out” of the joint
  • Lack of strength to carry out daily tasks such as lifting, reaching, or pulling

If you fall into any of these categories, consult with Angelo Mattalino, MD to get an expert diagnosis of your shoulder problem. Often, shoulder injuries fall into two main categories, and our doctor will explain this to you fully after a thorough evaluation.

Impingement

When the muscles of your shoulder rub excessively against the surface of the shoulder blade, impingement is the diagnosis. This problem occurs while performing repetitive movements that require overhead arm motions.

Instability

If the shoulder joint receives a sudden jolt or impact, like what happens in football or ice hockey, it can knock the joint out of its natural alignment. This can cause long-term shoulder instability and make it more likely that the joint will dislocate.

Shoulder Injuries Treatment Options

If you think you’ve injured your shoulder and are experiencing any of the symptoms we’ve detailed above, we encourage you to talk to the experts at Angelo Mattalino, MD to get all the facts. Our office is located in Tempe, AZ. Contact us today to schedule your initial consultation and get started.
