Shoulder pain banner 1
Shoulder is the most commonly used joint in our daily activities. Whether to put a glass on table, open a door, drive a car every small activity requires the shoulder movement to occur properly and in all directions in order to carry out proper function. Thus, the shoulder joint helps us in performing various tasks and functions without any limitations.

➤ Direct trauma
 
Some of the conditions that can cause Shoulder pain are:
➤ Rotator Cuff Injury
➤ Fractures
➤ Subacromial Bursitis

What our Clients have to say

Frequently Asked Questions

Is physiotherapy good for shoulder pain?
Problems in the shoulder can occur with day-to-day wear and tear, overuse, or an isolated injury. These pains can be easily treated with physiotherapy where an accurate diagnosis is done and the proper treatment is given.
How do I stop my shoulder pain?
Various ways to stop shoulder pain are :
  • ‣ Anti-inflammatory medication. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) help to relieve pain and lower inflammation.
  • ‣ Cold compress. Cold compresses can help reduce swelling in the shoulder.
  • ‣ Compression
  • ‣ Heat therapy.
  • ‣ Muscle relaxants.
  • ‣ Pain medication.
  • ‣ Rest and activity modification.
Can exercise make shoulder pain worse?
If anyone is suffering from shoulder pain then he/she should strictly avoid strenuous exercises. Vigorous exercise can aggravate shoulder pain and cause complications. Therefore, a consulting trained and qualified professional trainer is essential. Our skilled physiotherapist prescribes the most suitable exercises as per the severity of an injury. The patient should not do exercises on his/her own without consulting the doctor.
Why is shoulder pain worse at night?
Typically, shoulder pain that gets worse at night may be caused by bursitis, tendinopathy, or an injury to the rotator cuff. Bursitis is an inflammation of the bursa, which is a fluid-filled pad that provides a cushion to the bones of the joint.
How should I sleep with shoulder pain?
Here are some tips for finding a comfortable way to sleep with shoulder pain :
  • ‣ Use two pillows, with the top pillow staggered slightly back of the bottom pillow.
  • ‣ Try to lie on your side or back.
  • ‣ Hug a pillow, as this will put your top shoulder in an open position.
These remedies are only to spend the night, however, the next day you should see a physiotherapist who could treat the reason for the shoulder pain for peaceful sleep on forthcoming nights.
Is Surgery the only treatment option to fix the tear in the Rotator Cuff?
This is not true. Various conservative therapies such as Rest, Ice, and Anti-inflammatory drugs can improve functioning and reduce pain in patients with rotary cuff injuries or tears. If physiotherapy and medicines are giving results then there is no need for surgery. Doctors decide the best treatment option as per the severity of an injury.
How physiotherapy helps in rotator cuff injury?
It may be all one needs to treat an injured rotator cuff. Physiotherapy is a way to get back strength and movement after an injury. It includes treatment like exercise, ice, heat, massage, and equipment to help return the shoulder to its normal range of motion.
