There are many other reasons why you can experience shoulder pain. What they all have in common is two things. First of all, the shoulder injuries are injuries that involve the soft tissues of the body – the muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissue that holds them together as well as the bones that make up the shoulder.
There’s also something called the brachial plexus in the vicinity of your shoulder. This is a complete plexus of nerves that feed every part of your shoulder, arm, elbow, wrist and hand. If this brachial plexus is injured, it can cause nerve symptoms such as immense pain, numbness, weakness of the muscles of the areas the nerve innervates, and tingling sensations. This is the type of shoulder pain that needs immediate care and takes the longest to heal.
Secondly, because all these examples of shoulder pain are musculoskeletal in origin, your Doctors at All Broward Chiropractic are the best choice of health care professionals to be on your health care team. It doesn’t mean your chiropractor has to be the only health care professional involved in your care but do make sure he’s on your team. With drugless, pain-relieving methods of care for shoulder injuries, your recovery will be faster and more complete.
