Shoulder Pain & Treatment

Your shoulders play a vital role in nearly every upper-body movement, from lifting and reaching to throwing and pushing. When shoulder pain or injury limits your mobility, it can impact your daily activities and quality of life. At Grau Orthopaedics, we specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of shoulder conditions, offering advanced non-surgical and surgical solutions to help restore function and relieve pain.

Common Shoulder Conditions

  • Rotator Cuff Tears – Damage to the tendons that stabilize the shoulder, leading to pain, weakness, and limited range of motion
  • Shoulder Arthritis – Degeneration of the shoulder joint, causing stiffness, pain, and inflammation
  • Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis) – Thickening and tightening of the shoulder capsule, restricting movement
  • Shoulder Instability & Dislocations – Recurrent dislocations or looseness in the shoulder joint due to ligament damage
  • Labral Tears – Injury to the cartilage ring surrounding the shoulder socket, causing pain and instability
  • Bursitis & Tendonitis – Inflammation of the shoulder’s soft tissues, leading to pain and reduced function
  • Fractures & Trauma – Breaks in the collarbone, humerus, or scapula that require stabilization and treatment

Non-Surgical Shoulder Treatments

Whenever possible, we use conservative therapies to reduce pain and improve shoulder function, including:

  • Physical Therapy – Strengthening and mobility exercises to restore movement and prevent future injury
  • Injections (Cortisone, PRP, Hyaluronic Acid) – Targeted treatment to reduce inflammation and promote healing
  • Regenerative Medicine – Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and other therapies to accelerate tissue repair
  • Medications – Anti-inflammatory drugs and pain management options
  • Activity Modification – Personalized recommendations to reduce strain and prevent further injury

Minimally Invasive & Surgical Shoulder Procedures

For severe injuries or persistent pain, we offer state-of-the-art surgical solutions designed for faster recovery and long-term relief:

  • Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair – Minimally invasive repair of torn rotator cuff tendons
  • Shoulder Arthroscopy – A minimally invasive procedure to address labral tears, impingement, and instability
  • Shoulder Replacement (Total & Reverse Shoulder Replacement) – Replacing the damaged joint with a prosthetic for severe arthritis or irreparable rotator cuff tears
  • Outpatient Shoulder Surgery – Minimally invasive procedures performed in an outpatient setting for a quicker recovery
  • Fracture Repair – Stabilization and fixation of shoulder fractures to ensure proper healing
