Shoulder Pain Treatment From an Experienced Chiropractor Near Oldsmar, FL

As one of the most mobile joints in our body, the shoulder joint is responsible for a wide range of tasks. We use our shoulders to throw a ball, cross our arms, or reach up and grab a box of food off the shelf. It is because we use our shoulders so frequently that they are susceptible to injury. If you’re experiencing shoulder pain and are looking for chiropractic treatment to relieve your discomfort, come to Back & Neck Pain Center near Oldsmar, Florida. Our experienced chiropractor, Dr. Monte Venis, will be glad to help you. He’s been committed to helping patients get well and stay well for over 30 years.

Common Causes of Shoulder Pain

The shoulder is composed of the humerus (upper arm bone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the clavicle (collarbone). As the shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint, the head of the humerus fits into the rounded socket of the scapula. Surrounding these bones are muscles and tendons that help with movement. When these muscles, tendons, or bones are impaired, shoulder pain is the result. Some of the most common causes of shoulder pain include:

• Bursitis
• Tendinitis
• Rotator cuff tears
• Bicep tendon tears
• Shoulder impingement
• Shoulder dislocations
• Osteoarthritis
• Shoulder fractures
