The Shoulder
Introduction • • Components of the shoulder Most common joint pathology Rotator cuff Biceps Tendon Fractured neck of Femur Dislocation Adhesive Capsulitis
3 components • The glenohumeral joint • The acromiclavicular joint • The scapular
Diagnosis • • • History Range of Movement Palpation Pain Diagnostic tests (there are 65 that can be performed!)
Most common joint pathology Gh joint Ac joint Scapular Adhesive capsulitis OA (rare) Dislocation Tendonitis Impingement Instability
Shoulder or cervical nerve root? • Is there loss of shoulder ROM? YES = SHOULDER • Are the reflexes reduced? YES = CERVICAL
Rotator Cuff • Stabilise the head of the humerus while the other major muscles around the shoulder are actively moving the arm. Eg. When deltoid is abducting. They also initiate most movements
3 main types of rotator cuff lesions • Tendonitis • Partial rupture • Complete rupture
Tendonitis Supraspinatus Initiates abduction (Most commonly injured) Infraspinatus Subscapularis and Teres Minor Medically rotate Laterally rotate humerus • Painful arc at 90° abduction • Toothache type, constant pain from acromion to deltoid insertion • Reverse scapular pattern • Painful arc at • Painful medial 90 abduction rotation • Resisted gh lateral rotation • Thickened tendon posterior to ghjt
Treatment of tendonitis Early stages Later stages • Frictions • Ultrasound • Strengthening exercises in pain free range • Scapular control • Shoulder taping to offload tendon • Antiinflamatories • Stretching exercises
Rotator cuff rupture Partial rupture Complete rupture • Cause usually traumatic • As tendonitis but pain is sharper • Resisted abduction very painful • Passive elevation not affected • Cause fall onto point of shoulder with arm adducted/spontaneous due to degeneration • Acute pain • Inabiltiy to initiate abduction • Full passive rom if helped through first 2030º

Biceps Tendonitis Rupture • Pain in bicipital groove • Pain on resisted forearm supination and elbow flextion Buldge in lower third of upper arm.
Fractured neck of femur • Pain on early movement • Upper arm swelling • Need to be investigated early especially following a fall in the elderly • Should be kept moving as much as possible
Ghjt disclocation • Carries a very specific history of trauma - anterior dislocation (abduction, extension and lateral rotation) • Usually involves tear of labrum • Physio aims to strengthen rotator cuff • After 3 rd dislocation surgery is usually necessary
Adhesive Capsulitis/Frozen shoulder • inflammation of the shoulder capsule and synovial membrane leading to adhesion formation. This causes a thickening in the capsule and constriction of the glenohumeral joint due to the scar tissue forming in the capsule
Diagnosis • Age 40+ • Cause ? Unknown Possible: trauma, wrench, dislocation. CVA, heart conditions, diabetes, viral. Can also be secondary to cx spondylosis or to tendonitis.
Clinical features
Clinical features • Increasing dull ache over a few months duration. • Sharp pain when reaching the end of pain free movement • Loss of movement in a capsular pattern – lateral rotation – abduction - flexion Most reduced >>>>>Least reduced • Elevation and protraction of shoulder girdle
Clinical features cont’ • Pain over A/C joint and deltoid muscle – can spread to neck and/or elbow • All G/H movement often painful, not specific planes • Pain worse at night
Clincial features cont’ • Muscle spasm in pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi • Wasted deltoid • Associated posture • Dowagers hump • Poke chin
Prognosis • 18 months to 3 years 3 phases 1. Freezing –painful phase (worse at night and when lying on it) 2. Frozen – stiff phase 3. Thawing- stiffness gradually eases
Physiotherapy • Reduce pain with electrotherapy, TENS and acupuncture until patient is able to sleep and function day to day • Taping to rest the joint • Static strengthening exercises for the shoulder • Introduce stretching in sub acute phase
Exercises to increase rom
Other treatment • • • Antiinflamatories Muscle relaxants Hydrocortisone injection Nerve block Surgery – Manipulation/Arthroscopic capsular release
