Shoulder Pain
Steven E. Nolan, M.D.
Does nagging shoulder pain affect your golf or tennis game? Does it ache when you are working out or keep you awake at night? More than likely, it is not going to go away on its own and trying to “push through” the pain may even worsen the situation.
Shoulder pain can result from injuries or overuse. Rotator cuff injuries are very common and start to occur and increase in the fourth and fifth decades of life. Many people will lose their range of motion due to these injuries.
The best way to take care of shoulder pain is to see a board certified orthopedic surgeon. A physical exam followed by an MRI is the most accurate way to diagnose the problem. Treatment plans will vary but may include medications, injections, physical therapy and possibly surgery. The advances in arthroscopic surgery are amazing and not only will alleviate the problem but will allow for a quick recovery and return to favorite sports and activities.
Dr. Steven E. Nolan is a fellowship trained, board certified orthopedic surgeon with the Fondren Orthopedic group and is highly skilled in arthroscopic surgery.
