Rotator Cuff Tendinitis

Rotator Cuff Tendinitis

Rotator Cuff Tendinitis is a common orthopedic condition characterized by inflammation of the tendons of the rotator cuff in the shoulder. This inflammation is often due to overuse, repetitive shoulder movements, or aging. The rotator cuff comprises four tendons and muscles that stabilize and facilitate shoulder movements. In orthopaedics, rotator cuff tendinitis is a prevalent cause of shoulder pain and limited range of motion. Overhead activities and repetitive motions, common in certain sports or occupations, can contribute to its development. Orthopedic assessments involve clinical examinations, imaging studies such as MRI, and functional assessments to diagnose and determine the severity of tendinitis. Treatment approaches may include rest, anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy to strengthen the shoulder muscles, and modifications to activities. Orthopedic specialists may recommend corticosteroid injections for inflammation relief or, in chronic cases, consider surgical options like arthroscopy for tendon repair.
