The shoulder joint is sophisticated with an interplay of many structures giving it the ability to have a circumferential range of motion.
Shoulder pain and dysfunction is a common complaint that we can treat effectively with our advanced interventional orthopaedics procedures
Common symptoms of a shoulder issue are listed below and depend on the underlying cause and injury.
Many conditions can cause shoulder pain and dysfunction.
The critical step in successfully treating shoulder pain and dysfunction is diagnosing the underlying cause. As for most of our patients, we take the time to take a detailed history and perform a “hands-on’ examination utilising static and dynamic ultrasound to evaluate the complaint further. In some cases, further radiological assessments with MRI or an MR Arthrogram may be needed.
The treatment that best suits each patient depends on the nature of the problem. We specialise in using regenerative medicine techniques to treat shoulder pain, including:
Prolotherapy treatments involve injecting a solution containing sugar or ozone to boost your body’s healing responses and create new, healthy tissues.
PRP therapy uses powerful cells harvested from the patient’s body to stimulate new cell growth and optimize the repair of damaged tissues.
Ultrasound-guided Injections of Corticosteroid can result in good symptomatic relief in many cases while getting the rehabilitation program with your physical therapist, is another viable option.
