Shoulder Injury
Targeted diagnosis, 1-on-1 manual therapy, and active rehabilitation at Hills Physiotherapy.
Shoulder injuries, often arising from falls, sports activities, or repetitive motions, manifest with symptoms such as pain, swelling, and restricted movement. Common conditions include rotator cuff tears, dislocations, or impingements. Individuals may experience weakness or a clicking sensation in the shoulder. Emergency signs like severe pain or deformity warrant immediate medical attention. Diagnosing a shoulder injury involves physical examinations, imaging, and, in some cases, arthroscopy. Treatment options range from rest, physiotherapy, and medication to surgical interventions for severe cases. Early identification of symptoms and timely medical evaluation are crucial in managing and optimizing recovery from shoulder injuries.
