Common Signs of Shoulder & Rotator Cuff Pain
Shoulder pain from rotator cuff tears, tendon injury, bursitis or joint wear — evaluated precisely, then treated with image-guided and regenerative options where appropriate.
- Pain lifting your arm or reaching overhead
- Night pain when lying on that shoulder
- Weakness putting on a coat or reaching behind you
- A catching or grinding sensation with movement
- Pain that began after a fall or lifting injury
- An MRI showing a rotator cuff tear — but no clear plan
How We Evaluate Shoulder & Rotator Cuff Pain
Shoulder pain can come from the rotator cuff tendons, the bursa, the joint itself, the labrum or the neck. Your consultation combines a detailed history, targeted physical examination and imaging review to identify which one before any treatment.
Not every rotator cuff tear needs surgery — and not every shoulder pain is the cuff. Interventional pain and regenerative medicine open up options in between.
