Shoulder pain can occur due to injury, trama, or overuse. Dr. Derrick Burgess, M.D. Orthopaedic Surgeon, Sports Medicine, says that people notice shoulder pain long before they seek medical treatment. People genuinely begin to notice it in their daily lives, but by the time they seek treatment for it, more damage has already been done. Women usually experience pain when reaching around to fasten their bra straps or brushing their hair. Men usually experience pain when reaching into their back pockets or in the backseat of a car. If any of these signs occur, you should immediately contact a physician. Dr. Burgess goes over all your history and gives you a full physical examination which will direct you to the treatment that is best for you.
