Common motions that cause injury to the rotator cuff are:
Repetitive overhead type work can be the kind of motions that start putting your shoulder at risk. If day-in-day-out, you're serving tennis balls, throwing baseballs. or maybe you work in construction and you're doing a lot of overhead work. This can cause damage to your rotator cuff.
When should you see a shoulder specialist?
If you've tried taking some time off from the sports you enjoy doing, whether it's lifting weights, rowing, or golfing. Tried anti-inflammatories, icing, and some stretching exercises. If it's still not getting better, then that's the time that you might start thinking about surgery to improve your shoulder function and pain. Now, a lot of that has to do with what the problem is at its basis, but kind of if you walk through each of those steps and take the simple options first and they don't get better then we start talking a little bit more seriously about a surgical solution.
