Teres Muscle

Teres Muscle

The Teres Muscles are two distinct muscles in human anatomy: the teres major and the teres minor, both of which have relevance in orthopaedics. The teres major, situated in the upper arm, aids in various shoulder movements, including internal rotation, adduction, and extension. Orthopedic assessments often involve evaluating the teres major in cases of shoulder pain, instability, or dysfunction. The teres minor, part of the rotator cuff, plays a crucial role in external rotation and abduction of the shoulder. In orthopaedics, this muscle is frequently assessed in the context of rotator cuff injuries and shoulder impingement. Rehabilitation strategies for teres muscle-related issues in orthopaedics may include targeted exercises to strengthen and stabilize the shoulder. Physical therapists work to address muscle imbalances and optimize shoulder biomechanics, contributing to improved function and reduced pain.
