The onset of the pain may be acute if due to an injury or insidious if due to a gradual process such as an osteoarthritic spur. The pain has been described as dull rather than sharp, and lingers for long periods of time, making it hard to fall asleep. [2] Other symptoms can include a grinding or popping sensation during movement of the shoulder ...
Medical history (the patient tells the doctor about an injury). For shoulder problems the medical history includes the patient's age, dominant hand, if injury affects normal work/activities as well as details on the actual shoulder problem including acute versus chronic and the presence of shoulder catching, instability, locking, pain, paresthesias (burning sensation), stiffness, swelling, and ...
On the left side of the body—where it is the right side of the ligament which is attached to humerus— the U becomes a reverse "J" Sign. [4] Imaging ( MRI ) is the best modality for diagnosis where the presence of the "J" sign on an MRI indicates that this detachment has occurred.
X-ray at right shows the same shoulder after reduction and internal rotation, revealing a Bankart lesion and a Hill-Sachs lesion. In over 95% of shoulder dislocations, the humerus is displaced anteriorly. [8] In most of those, the head of the humerus comes to rest under the coracoid process, referred to as sub
Localized pain on the anterior shoulder suggests subacromial impingement, whereas posterior shoulder pain suggests internal impingement. [45] For the diagnosis of full-thickness rotator cuff tear, the best combination appears to include once more the painful arc and weakness in external rotation, and in addition, the drop arm sign .

Lateral view demonstrating the articular surface of the right scapula is shown. Symptoms: Shoulder instability and widespread shoulder discomfort, and catching, locking, or popping feelings in shoulders. [1] Risk factors: Anterior shoulder dislocation and/or repeated anterior shoulder subluxations. [2] Diagnostic method: X-ray and MRI ...
MRI scan: simple bone cyst humerus of a 13 year old boy: Specialty: Orthopedics: Symptoms: Pain, swelling, reduced movement, pathological fracture or no symptoms [1] Causes: Unknown [1] Diagnostic method: Medical imaging [1] Frequency: Age less than 20 years. M:F ratio: 2:1 [1]
Injury of axillary nerve (axillary neuropathy) is a condition that can be associated with a surgical neck of the humerus fracture.. It can also be associated with a dislocated shoulder [1] or with traction injury to the nerve, which may be caused by over-aggressive stretching or blunt trauma that does not result in fracture or dislocation.
