Shoulder Pain Sidelining Your Game? Don’t Let Rotator Cuff Tears Keep You Out of Action!

Are you experiencing shoulder pain that just won’t go away? It could be a sign of a rotator cuff tear, a common injury that affects athletes and active individuals alike. But fear not, the experts at Florida Sports Injury & Orthopedic Institute are here to help you get back in the game.

What is a rotator cuff tear? The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that surround and support the shoulder joint, helping to stabilize and move the arm. When one or more of these muscles or tendons becomes damaged or torn, it can result in pain, limited range of motion, and weakness in the shoulder.

There are several causes of rotator cuff tears, including repetitive overhead movements (such as throwing or swimming), trauma or injury to the shoulder, and the natural aging process. While some tears may heal on their own with rest and physical therapy, more severe tears may require surgical intervention.

At Florida Sports Injury & Orthopedic Institute, our team of experienced orthopedic surgeons specializes in the treatment of rotator cuff tears. From conservative, non-surgical approaches to advanced arthroscopic procedures, we offer a range of options to help our patients get back to their active lifestyles.
