A shoulder is made up of many joints and bones, held together by muscles and tendons that support the shoulder and enable the arm to rotate. But over time, these connective tissues and bones cause pain in the shoulder. This pain gets caused due to being overused, misused, or due to an injury. This pain can occur in the ball-and-socket joint itself, which is the main ball-like joint that fits into the socket and allows rotary motion, or the muscles and tendons surrounding the joint.
Shoulder pain may get felt suddenly or gradually increase over time. Other symptoms may also include:
· Problems in moving your shoulder
· Tingling or numbness in the shoulder
· Muscle spasm
· Stiffness in shoulder
· Weakness in the shoulder or arm
· Noticeable swelling, puffiness, or injury
To mitigate the pain Dr. Michael Read, a Shoulder Pain Massage Therapist is the best solution. In his therapy, he applies gentle and sustained pressure to relieve trigger point pain or abnormally sensitive spots in the shoulder muscle. In more extreme cases, sports massage, which uses a series of gliding strokes, rhythmic motions, and deep friction rubbing, may be recommended to help alleviate pain.
