   Extractions: Search September 9, 2005 Registration Healthcare Professionals You are in: Hand, Wrist, Elbow, and Shoulder A rotator cuff injury is an injury to 1 or more of the 4 muscles in the shoulder. This shoulder injury may come on suddenly and be associated with a specific injury such as a fall (acute), or it may be something that gets progressively worse over time with activity that aggravates the muscle (chronic). The type of injury can range from an inflammation of the muscle without any permanent damage, such as tendinitis, to a complete or partial tear of the muscle that might require surgery to fix it. The shoulder connects the upper arm to the upper part of the body. It consists of 3 bones: the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the humerus (upper arm bone). Many different ligaments (rubber band like structures that attach bone to bone) are involved in stabilizing the shoulder joint, particularly in the front. The major stabilizing factors at the back of the joint are the muscles of the rotator cuff. These muscles help to keep the head of the humerus in place against the shoulder blade. The rotator cuff is comprised of 4 muscles (supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis). Last updated: Aug 10, 2005

   Extractions: The rotator cuff is the group of four tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. The tendons hook up to the four muscles that move the shoulder in various directions. The four muscles whose tendons form the rotator cuff are: the subscapularis muscle, which moves the arm by turning it inward (internal rotation); the supraspinatus muscle, which is responsible for elevating the arm and moving it away from the body; the infraspinatus muscle, which assists the lifting of the arm during turning the arm outward (external rotation); and the teres minor muscle, which also helps in the outward turning of the arm.

   Extractions: THE PHYSICIAN AND SPORTSMEDICINE - VOL 25 - NO. 6 - JUNE 97 In Brief: Rotator cuff injuries in sports are usually a result of microtrauma from repetitive movements. Classic, or primary, impingement results directly from overhead motions, and secondary impingement is related to underlying shoulder instability. A variety of physical maneuvers are used to assess pain, muscle weakness, and shoulder stability. The workup also includes plain x-rays, supplemented by other imaging tests if a cuff tear is suspected. Nonoperative treatment, which may include steroid injections, is often effective for an inflamed rotator cuff tendon. Surgery is indicated if the patient has no improvement after at least 6 weeks of physical therapy. F or competitive or recreational athletes involved in baseball, tennis, or swimming, shoulder disordersespecially rotator cuff injuriescan be debilitating. Though medical understanding of rotator cuff injuries has improved greatly, successful diagnosis and treatment of patients still depend on understanding the mechanisms of injury and ruling out shoulder instability, particularly in athletes who use overhead motions. The keys to success include tailoring the treatment to the diagnosis and prescribing appropriate rehabilitation programs, either alone or in combination with surgery. The subscapularis, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and teres minor muscles are collectively referred to as the rotator cuff. Together with the deltoid, they place the arm in the overhead position essential in many sports.

   Extractions: Rehabiltation Stretching Strengthening Sports massage Rotator Cuff Injury What are the rotator cuf muscles? The rotator cuff muscles control rotation of the shoulder. They consist of the infraspinatus, teres minor and supraspinatus which rotate the shoulder outwards and the subscapularis which is one of the muscles which rotate the shoulder inwards. These muscles are put under a great deal of strain especially in throwing events and racket sports where your arm is above your head a lot. A sudden sharp pain in the shoulder would indicate a possible rupture of a tendon, while a gradual onset is more likely to be inflammation. Symptoms also include: Pain on overhead activity such as throwing or racket sports. Pain when you bend the arm and rotate it outwards against resistance. Pain on the outside of the shoulder possibly radiating down into the arm. Pain in the shoulder which is worse at night.

View a Printer Friendly Version Have you ever been working out at the gym, pushing a heavy weight and heard a popping sound in your shoulder. Or what about skiing down the slopes, and landing shoulder first in the snow at the bottom. Or maybe just having a friendly game of tennis, when all of a sudden there's a sharp pain in your shoulder. These are all signs of the same thing; a shoulder injury. Whether you want to call it a frozen shoulder, a rotator cuff tear or tendinitis shoulder, it's really all the same. A tear or strain in the rotator cuff muscles and tendons. The shoulder joint is a truly remarkable creation. It's quite a complex formation of bones, muscles and tendons and provides a great range of motion for your arm. The only downside to this extensive range of motion is a lack of stability, which can make the shoulder joint vulnerable to injury.
