Shoulder Pain with Abduction and External Rotation

Nov 13, 2023

Shoulder pain that occurs with abduction and external rotation can be quite debilitating for individuals. This specific type of pain is often associated with various underlying conditions that affect the shoulder joint and surrounding structures. At IAOM-US, our team of experts in Health & Medical, Chiropractors, and Physical Therapy is dedicated to helping individuals find relief from this challenging and painful condition.

Understanding Shoulder Pain with Abduction and External Rotation

Shoulder pain with abduction and external rotation is characterized by discomfort or a sharp pain that arises when the shoulder is moved away from the body and rotated outward. This movement can be particularly challenging and painful for those experiencing this condition. It often limits their range of motion and daily activities.

There can be different causes for shoulder pain with abduction and external rotation. One common underlying condition is rotator cuff tendinitis. This occurs when the tendons of the rotator cuff become inflamed, usually due to repetitive overhead activities or trauma. Another possible cause is a shoulder impingement, where certain structures in the shoulder become compressed during movement.
