Shoulder pain can make everyday activities such as lifting your arm, dressing, reaching overhead, or sleeping difficult. While occasional discomfort may improve with rest, persistent shoulder pain may require medical evaluation.

Common causes include rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, arthritis, tendon inflammation, sports injuries, and muscle strains. Symptoms may include pain, stiffness, weakness, swelling, or limited shoulder movement.

If shoulder pain continues for several weeks, follows an injury, or significantly affects your movement, an orthopedic evaluation can help identify the underlying problem.

According to Dr. Susheel Sharma, Joint Replacement & Orthopedic Surgeon, timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment can help improve shoulder function and prevent the condition from worsening.

Treatment may include medications, physiotherapy, activity modification, injections, or surgery, depending on the cause and severity.

If persistent shoulder pain is affecting your daily life, consult Dr. Susheel Sharma at Shree Medishine Hospital for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.
