Shoulder

Our shoulder joints move every time we move our arms, so both traumatic and long-term injuries to this area are common. Shoulder problems range from minor, such as with aches, pains and sore muscles, to serious, as in cases where the bones sustain fractures and/or the ligaments and tendons stretch and tear.

Children and adolescents are particularly prone to shoulder injuries, because of the great demand that participation in sports places on their developing joints and bones. Early intervention by the experienced specialists at The Orthopedic Center ensures more successful treatment and gets kids back to their pre-injury level of function.
