Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a process of senescence. The pathophysiology is mucoid degeneration. [ 4] Most people develop rotator cuff tendinopathy within their lifetime. [ 5] As part of rotator cuff tendinopathy, the tendon can thin and develop a defect. This defect is often referred to as a rotator cuff tear.
Shoulder impingement syndrome. Shoulder impingement syndrome is a syndrome involving tendonitis ( inflammation of tendons) of the rotator cuff muscles as they pass through the subacromial space, the passage beneath the acromion. It is particularly associated with tendonitis of the supraspinatus muscle. [ 1] This can result in pain, weakness ...
Adhesive capsulitis (AC), also known as frozen shoulder, is a condition associated with shoulder pain and stiffness. [ 1] It is a common shoulder ailment that is marked by pain and a loss of range of motion, particularly in external rotation. [ 3] There is a loss of the ability to move the shoulder, both voluntarily and by others, in multiple ...
Sudden, acute left arm pain may be caused by a broken bone. The most common causes of fractures are falls, accidents (such as car or motorcycle accidents), and sports-related injuries. In addition ...
Subacromial bursitis. Subacromial bursitis is a condition caused by inflammation of the bursa that separates the superior surface of the supraspinatus tendon (one of the four tendons of the rotator cuff) from the overlying coraco-acromial ligament, acromion, and coracoid (the acromial arch) and from the deep surface of the deltoid muscle.

Calcific tendinitis is a common condition where deposits of calcium phosphate form in a tendon, sometimes causing pain at the affected site. Deposits can occur in several places in the body, but are by far most common in the rotator cuff of the shoulder. Around 80% of those with deposits experience symptoms, typically chronic pain during ...
Biceps muscle. The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and their tendons that act to stabilize the human shoulder and allow for its extensive range of motion. Of the seven scapulohumeral muscles, four make up the rotator cuff. The four muscles are: supraspinatus muscle. infraspinatus muscle. teres minor muscle.
