Shoulder Arthritis
 

Shoulder Arthritis is a degenerative condition that affects the cartilage within the shoulder joint, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.

What is Shoulder Arthritis?
Shoulder arthritis occurs when the cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones in the shoulder joint wears away. This degeneration leads to bone-on-bone friction, resulting in pain and inflammation. The main types of shoulder arthritis include:

• Osteoarthritis: Age-related wear and tear of the joint.

• Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune condition causing inflammation in the joint lining.

• Post-Traumatic Arthritis: Arthritis resulting from an injury to the shoulder.

• Avascular Necrosis: Loss of blood supply to the bone, causing joint damage.
   

Symptoms of Shoulder Arthritis
Common symptoms of shoulder arthritis include:

• Persistent pain that worsens with movement or at night.

• Stiffness and reduced range of motion.

• Grinding or clicking sounds when moving the shoulder.

• Swelling and tenderness around the joint.

If these symptoms interfere with your daily life, it is crucial to seek evaluation from a specialist.
