Shoulder Impingement Syndrome
Shoulder impingement syndrome occurs when the shoulder's tendons are compressed during arm lifting, causing pain and limited movement. Often stemming from overuse or injury, symptoms include discomfort and weakness. Treatment typically involves rest, physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory medications. Early intervention can prevent worsening of shoulder impingement syndrome.
