๐ช Therapy Tuesday | Rotator Cuff Tear
Does your shoulder hurt when you lift your arm, reach overhead, or sleep on that side?
Do you feel weakness while lifting or carrying something?
It could be related to a Rotator Cuff Tear.
The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles and tendons that help stabilize your shoulder and control arm movement. A tear can occur suddenly after an injury or develop gradually due to repeated overuse.
๐ Common Causes:
๐๏ธ Repetitive overhead activities
๐ค Falls or sudden shoulder injuries
๐พ Sports involving throwing
๐ง Age-related tendon changes
๐ผ Repeated lifting or overhead work
โ ๏ธ Common Symptoms:
๐ธ Shoulder pain, especially when lifting the arm
๐ธ Weakness in the shoulder
๐ธ Difficulty reaching overhead or behind your back
๐ธ Pain while sleeping on the affected side
๐ธ Clicking or discomfort during movement
๐ก Important: Not every rotator cuff tear needs surgery. The right treatment depends on the size and type of tear, symptoms, activity level, and functional limitations.
๐ช How Physiotherapy Helps:
โ
Reduce pain and improve movement
โ
Restore shoulder mobility
โ
Strengthen the rotator cuff and shoulder blade muscles
โ
Improve shoulder mechanics
โ
Support a safe return to daily activities and sports
Donโt ignore persistent shoulder pain or weakness. Get your shoulder assessed before it starts limiting your everyday life.
