This can cause pain, weakness, and difficulty moving the shoulder. Whether caused by injury, repetitive motion, or naturally loose...

For proper functioning, the shoulder requires integrity of the bony surfaces as well as good function of the deltoid muscle (which gives the shoulder its contour) and the muscles of the rotator cuff that attach to the tuberosities of the humerus. The placement of a shoulder prosthesis may be necessary in cases of...

THE CONDITION : The rotator cuff of the shoulder consists of five tendons: the supraspinatus, the infraspinatus, the subscapularis, the long head of the biceps, and the teres minor. Together, these tendons form a continuous sheet that covers the...

It is a small, nearly immobile joint located between the acromion and the clavicle. It acts as a rigid hanger, with which the clavicle “supports” the weight of the arm and the scapula.A fracture of the clavicle or an acromioclavicular dislocation disrupts this rigid hanger. Due to its weight, the arm...
