Shoulder Pain Treatment
Shoulder pain is a common condition that can be caused by a variety of factors, including poor posture, injury, or degenerative changes.
Sometimes other symptoms come with shoulder issues, such as:
Pins and needles in arm / fingers
Nerve / sharp pain
Poor circulation in arm / hand
Reduced range of movement
The treatment for shoulder pain depends on the underlying cause, severity, and duration of the pain. Here are some common shoulder pain treatments:
Rest : Resting for a short period (a day or two) can help relieve mild shoulder pain. Avoid carrying heavy objects can help too.
Exercise : Targeted exercise programs can help improve shoulder flexibility, strength, and range of motion. Gentle stretches and range of motion exercises are often recommended.
Pain medication : Over-the-counter pain relievers can sometimes help, but not always.
Physical Therapy : Physical intervention and exercises are both very effective in improving the shoulder.
