Experiencing shoulder or arm pain? There are several possible reasons. Some of the most common causes of shoulder pain may include:
Tendinitis: inflammation of the tendon
Tendon damage: full or partial tear of a tendon
Bursitis: damage to the fluid-filled sacs that cushion the shoulder joints
Frozen shoulder: pain and stiffness that tightens, causes stiffness, and restricts movement of the shoulder
Dislocation: arm bone becomes dislodged from its socket in your shoulder
Arthritis: rheumatoid arthritis as well as osteoarthritis can cause arm and/or shoulder pain
Fracture: break in your shoulder socket or ball
