Impact on daily life
Lifting the arm may hurt, and stiffness or restricted movement may occur. Symptoms can arise from the shoulder or elsewhere.
Assessment and approach
Movement range and muscle strength are assessed. Findings help determine whether controlled exercise and physiotherapy are appropriate.
Useful details
Explain which movements have become difficult. Severe pain after injury, an obvious change in shape or inability to move the arm requires urgent assessment.
