Shoulder Pain Treatment in New Jersey

Most shoulder problems involve tendon inflammation or tears, instability, arthritis or a fracture. Learn how the shoulder works and how we help.

Your shoulder is made up of three bones: the upper arm bone (humerus), the shoulder blade (scapula) and the collarbone (clavicle). The head of the upper arm bone fits into a rounded socket in the shoulder blade called the glenoid. A group of muscles and tendons, the rotator cuff, keeps the arm bone centered in the socket.

Common categories of shoulder problems

  • Tendon inflammation (bursitis or tendinitis) or a tendon tear
  • Instability
  • Arthritis
  • Fracture (broken bone)

Much less often, shoulder pain is caused by infection or nerve-related problems.
