Shoulder Joint Tear (Glenoid Labrum Tear) Therapy & Treatment Coventry, Warwickshire
Three bones make up the shoulder joint, the shoulder blade (scapula), the collarbone (clavicle), and the upper arm bone (humerus). The head of the upper arm bone (humeral head) rests in a socket in the shoulder blade called the glenoid. The upper arm bone called the head is larger than the socket, a soft fibrous rim of tissue rim called the labrum surrounds the socket to help stabilize the joint. This rim deepens the socket , so that the head of the upper arm bone fits better. Also serving as an attachment site for several ligaments. Injuries to the tissue rim surrounding the shoulder socket can occur from acute trauma or repetitive shoulder motion.
Examples of traumatic injury include:
- Falling on an outstretched arm
- A blow to the shoulder
- A sudden jerk, as in trying to lift to heavy an object
- A violent overhead stretch or reach, as in when trying to stop a fall
Symptoms of Shoulder Tear.
- Pain, in overhead activities
- Pulling locking, cracking or grinding
- Occasional pain with daily activities
- Perhaps a sense of instability in the shoulder
- Decreased range in movement
- Lack of strength
