The coracoacromial ligament originates from the summit of the acromion of the scapula, just in front of the articular surface for the clavicle. [1] It inserts by its broad base along the whole length of the lateral border of the coracoid process of the scapula. [1] The clavicle and under surface of the deltoid muscle are above it.
Subacromial impingement is not free of criticism. First, the identification of acromion type shows poor intra- and inter-observer reliability. [26] [27] Second, a computerized three-dimensional study failed to support impingement by any portion of the acromion on the rotator cuff tendons in different shoulder positions. [28]
For type I and II treatment is usually with a sling and pain medications for a week or two. [2] In type III injuries surgery is generally only done if symptoms remain following treatment without surgery. [2] A separated shoulder is a common injury among those involved in sports, especially contact sports. [3]
Adhesive capsulitis or "frozen shoulder" is often secondary to rotator cuff injury due to post-surgical immobilization. Available treatment options include intra-articular corticosteroid injections to relieve pain in the short-term and electrotherapy, mobilizations, and home exercise programs for long-term pain relief.

You will need to get prescription pain medications from your veterinarian, but there are some options if you cannot go that route. Since not all dogs do well with the normal pain meds (like ...
The acromion is a bony process at the end of the scapula. The shoulder is a complex mechanism involving bones, ligaments, joints, muscles, and tendons. The two main causes are acute injury or chronic and cumulative degeneration of the shoulder joint. Mechanisms can be extrinsic, intrinsic or a combination of both. [27]

It is attached, by its apex, to the summit of the acromion just in front of the articular surface for the clavicle; and by its broad base to the whole length of the lateral border of the coracoid process. [2] This ligament, together with the coracoid process and the acromion, forms a vault for the protection of the head of the humerus.
