Shoulder

Rotator Cuff:  The incidence of rotator cuff damage increases with age and is most frequently due to degeneration of the major tendon of the shoulder. Treatment varies from rehabilitation to surgical repair of the rotator cuff. The best treatment method is determined based on the individual’s severity of symptoms and functional requirements.

Shoulder:   Early detection is the key to preventing serious shoulder injuries. Often, exercise aimed at strengthening shoulder muscles is prescribed. Anti-inflammatory medication may also help to reduce pain and swelling. Advanced shoulder arthritis that causes disabling pain and limits motion can be successfully treated with a joint replacement thus allowing people to resume normal lives.
