Understanding Shoulder Conditions and Treatments at Brahm Chaitanya Super Speciality Hospital

The shoulder is one of the most versatile and complex joints in the human body. It enables a wide range of motions, from lifting and throwing to reaching and rotating. However, its complexity also makes it vulnerable to injuries and degenerative conditions. At Brahm Chaitanya Super Speciality Hospital, located in Pimpri Chinchwad (PCMC), our expert team of orthopaedic specialists is dedicated to diagnosing, treating, and managing shoulder conditions with state-of-the-art care. Let us help you understand the basics of shoulder health and how we can assist in restoring your mobility and quality of life.

Anatomy of the Shoulder

The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint formed by three main bones:

  1. Humerus (upper arm bone)
  2. Scapula (shoulder blade)
  3. Clavicle (collarbone)

These bones are supported by a network of muscles, tendons, and ligaments that work together to ensure stability and movement. The rotator cuff, a group of four muscles and their tendons, plays a critical role in keeping the shoulder stable while allowing for a wide range of motion.

Common Shoulder Problems

Shoulder issues can arise due to injuries, overuse, age-related wear and tear, or medical conditions. Common shoulder conditions include:

1. Rotator Cuff Injuries

  • Tears: Can occur due to trauma or repetitive strain.
  • Tendinitis: Inflammation of the tendons, often caused by overuse.
  • Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursa, a small sac of fluid that cushions the joint.

2. Shoulder Dislocation

This occurs when the upper arm bone pops out of the socket, often due to an accident or sports injury.

3. Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

This condition causes stiffness and restricted movement in the shoulder, often developing gradually.

4. Arthritis

Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can affect the shoulder, leading to pain, swelling, and limited mobility.

5. Fractures

Broken bones in the shoulder, such as the clavicle or humerus, are often caused by falls or trauma.

Symptoms to Watch For

Shoulder problems can manifest through various symptoms. If you experience any of the following, it’s important to consult a specialist:

  • Persistent pain
  • Swelling or tenderness
  • Difficulty moving the arm
  • Weakness in the shoulder
  • Clicking or popping sounds during movement

Diagnosis at Brahm Chaitanya Super Speciality Hospital

At Brahm Chaitanya Super Speciality Hospital, we employ advanced diagnostic techniques to pinpoint the cause of your shoulder pain. Our comprehensive diagnostic tools include:

  • Physical Examination: To assess your range of motion and identify areas of pain.
  • Imaging Tests: X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans provide detailed visuals of the bones and soft tissues.
  • Ultrasound: Useful for evaluating soft tissue injuries.

Treatment Options

Our hospital offers personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific condition, lifestyle, and needs. Treatment options range from non-invasive methods to advanced surgical procedures:

Non-Surgical Treatments

  1. Medications: Anti-inflammatory drugs and pain relievers.
  2. Physical Therapy: Customized exercises to restore strength and flexibility.
  3. Injections: Corticosteroid or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections to reduce inflammation and promote healing.

Surgical Treatments

When non-surgical methods are insufficient, surgical intervention may be necessary. Our orthopaedic surgeons specialize in:

  1. Arthroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure to repair damaged tissues.
  2. Rotator Cuff Repair: To mend torn tendons.
  3. Shoulder Replacement Surgery: For severe arthritis or fractures.

Post-Treatment Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation is a crucial part of recovery. Our physiotherapy team designs tailored programs to help you regain strength, mobility, and functionality. Adherence to these programs ensures faster recovery and reduces the risk of re-injury.
