Some of the areas marked for front shoulder pain and injury are mentioned below:<ul><li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 2;">SLAP Tear A slap tear occurs when there is an injury to the inner cartilage of the shoulder joints. SLAP is an abbreviation for Superior Labrum, Anterior to Posterior tear, and it deals with tears and injuries to various tears and injuries to muscles and tendons that help keep your shoulder healthy and fully functional.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 2;">Rotator Cuff Tear A rotator cuff tear can cause swelling and soreness in the shoulder and arm region, as it involves the incision of the rotator cuff, a tendon that keeps the shoulder and the arms in place. This tear can result in mild to severe pain depending on the intensity and scale of injury to the rotator cuff.&#xA0;</li><li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 2;">Biceps Tendonitis Bicep Tendonitis is when the tendons in the bicep that connect the shoulder to the arms are inflamed or have undergone an injury resulting in pain and reduced mobility in the region. It occurs when there is repetitive use.&#xA0;</li><li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 2;">Clavicle Injury A clavicle fracture can occur when there has been a high impact on the collarbones in the shoulder. It is commonly injured due to falls, effects, or tears in ligaments and tendons in the region. A fracture can cause severe pain and immobilize shoulder movements.&#xA0;</li></ul> <h2 id="back-shoulder-pain-diagnosis-chart">Back Shoulder Pain Diagnosis Chart</h2><h2 id="the-back-shoulder-pain-diagnosis-chart-helps-understand-the-pain-in-the-back-of-the-individual-near-the-shoulder-this-is-categorized-according-to-region-which-helps-understand-the-condition-better">The Back shoulder pain diagnosis chart helps understand the pain in the back of the individual near the shoulder. This is categorized according to region, which helps understand the condition better.</h2><ul><li style="line-height: 2;">Muscle Strain Muscle strains due to intense or repetitive engagement on the shoulders can cause back shoulder pain in the region and increase shoulder pain. Injury to the tendon and muscles can increase pain. Lifting heavy objects, backpacks, and stress on the arms can aggravate the condition.</li><li style="line-height: 2;">Poor Posture This is a prevalent cause of back shoulder pain. Variations in sleeping patterns can cause shoulder pain as it adds pressure to the joints and muscles. Working in poor and stressful conditions, long hours of activities such as typing, cooking, and driving can also add stress to the joints and cause pain.</li><li style="line-height: 2;">T4 Syndrome Also known as Upper Thoracic Syndrome, is a rare condition where a combination of symptoms radiate across the shoulder blade and into the arms and the neck region. It is often difficult to pinpoint the exact region of the pain.</li><li style="line-height: 2;">Scapulothoracic Bursitis This is a common cause of back shoulder pain due to the constant grating of various shoulder joints against each other, resulting in the swelling of the bursa. This fluid-filled sac that aids movement and reduces friction can be inflamed, resulting in pain and discomfort.</li><li style="line-height: 2;">Nerve Pain It is also common for injuries to nerves, such as tears, pinching, and compression in the back and spinal cord, to hurt the shoulder. This pain and discomfort to the nerve can cause pain in the shoulder. This pain can often be numbing or throbbing and can result in partial loss of sensation in the injured area of the shoulder.</li><li style="line-height: 2;">Shoulder Arthritis Arthritis can be a chronic condition that worsens with age. Arthritis is an autoimmune disease and can result in joint pain and increased wear and tear of the joints. This can hurt the shoulder and its ability to be functional. Arthritis can be a painful condition as it progresses.</li></ul> <h2 id="treating-primary-tissue">Treating Primary Tissue</h2>Local Area Treatment(Primary Treatment)For frozen shoulder and shoulder Osteoarthritis, we are trying to treat the synovial cavity.&#xA0;Diagrams showing the synovial cavity for reference:<img src="https://attachments.gorgias.help/oxrr/hc/jyny/screenshot_3-df570671-1575-4bcd-b13a-6d8efb235864.png" style="width: 415px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"><img src="https://attachments.gorgias.help/oxrr/hc/jyny/image-f7cd0c04-7f36-438b-9a99-02a3182d588c.jpeg" style="width: 445px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"><ol><li style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Anterior Placement <img src="https://attachments.gorgias.help/oxrr/hc/jyny/anterior%20placement-26c5b591-88a4-4855-974e-76417baafd42.jpeg" style="width: 420px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"></li><li style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Posterior Placement <img src="https://attachments.gorgias.help/oxrr/hc/jyny/posterior%20placement-ecddbb42-7a14-4925-9a4e-6cbffa6116a7.jpeg" style="width: 417px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"></li></ol>Underarm Placement<img src="https://attachments.gorgias.help/oxrr/hc/jyny/underarm%20placement-b67980b2-456d-4d5e-9534-7fef3fb57f07.jpeg" style="width: 590px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> <h2 id="primary-treatment-time">Primary Treatment Time</h2>Treat the local areas indicated in the Local Area Treatment (Primary Treatment) for 10-15 minutes dailyTimer instructionsThe MOVE+ Pro can be used in 5/10/15 minute segmentsTo change the set time hold down the power button for 2 seconds.
