Shoulder Evaluation (History)
HistoryWhat is the cause of pain?Mechanism of injury? Previous history?Location, duration and intensity of pain?Creptitus, numbness, distortion in temperatureWeakness or fatigue?What provides relief?
Shoulder Evaluation (Observation)
Elevation or depression of shoulder tipsPosition and shape of clavicleAcromion processBiceps and deltoid symmetryPostural assessment (kyphosis, lordosis, shoulders)
Position of head and armsScapular elevation and symmetryScapular protraction or wingingMuscle symmetry Scapulohumeral rhythm
Shoulder Evaluation (Observation)
Scapulohumeral RhythmMovement of scapula relative to the humerusInitial 30 degrees of glenohumeral abduction does not incorporate scapular motion (setting phase)30 to 90 degrees the scapula abducts and upwardly rotates 1 degree for every 2 degrees of humeral elevationAbove 90 degrees the scapula and humerus move in 1:1 ratio

Recognition and Management of Specific Injuries
Clavicular FracturesEtiology
Fall on outstretched arm, fall on tip of shoulder or direct impactOccur primarily in middle third (greenstick fracture often occurs in young athletes)
Signs and SymptomsGenerally presents w/ supporting of arm, head tilted towards injured side w/ chin turned awayClavicle may appear lowerPalpation reveals pain, swelling, deformity and point tenderness
ManagementClosed reduction - sling and swathe, immobilize w/ figure 8 brace for 6-8 weeksRemoval of brace should be followed w/ joint mobes, isometrics and use of a sling for 3-4 weeks
Clavicular Fractures (cont’d)
Clavicular Fractures (cont’d)
EtiologyResult of direct impact or force transmitted up through humerus
Signs and SymptomsPain during shoulder movement as well as swelling and point tenderness
ManagementSling immediately and follow-up w/ X-rayUse sling for 3 weeks w/ overhead strengthening beginning at week 1
Scapular Fractures
EtiologyHumeral shaft fractures occur as a result of a direct blow, or fall on outstretched armProximal fractures occur due to direct blow, dislocation, fall on outstretched arm
May pose danger to nerve and blood supplyEpiphyseal fractures are more common in young athletes -occur due to direct blow or indirect blow travelling along long axis of humerus
Signs and SymptomsPain, swelling, point tenderness, decreased ROM
ManagementImmediate application of splint, treat for shock and refer
Humeral fractures- remove from activity for 3-4 monthsProximal fracture - incapacitation 2-6 monthsEpiphyseal fracture - quick healing - 3 weeks
Fractures of the Humerus
EtiologyIndirect force, blunt trauma (may cause displacement)
Signs and SymptomsGrade 1 - pain and slight disabilityGrade 2 - pain, subluxation w/ deformity, swelling and point tenderness and decreased ROMGrade 3 - gross deformity (dislocation), pain, swelling, decreased ROM
Possibly life-threatening if dislocates posteriorly
ManagementRICE, reduction if necessaryImmobilize for 3-5 weeks followed by graded reconditioning
Sternoclavicular Sprain
EtiologyResult of direct blow (from any direction), upward force from humerus, Can be graded from 1-6 depending on severity
Signs and SymptomsGrade 1 - point tenderness and pain w/ movement; no disruption of AC jointGrade 2 - tear or rupture of AC ligament, partial displacement of lateral end of clavicle; pain, point tenderness and decreased ROM (abduction/adduction)Grade 3 - Rupture of AC and CC ligamentsGrade 4 - posterior dislocation of clavicle
Acromioclavicular Sprain
Signs and SymptomsGrade 5 - loss of AC and CC ligaments; tearing of deltoid and trapezius attachments; gross deformity, severe pain, decreased ROMGrade 6 - displacement of clavicle behind the coracobrachialis
ManagementIce, stabilization, referral to physicianGrades 1-3 (non-operative) will require 3-4 days and 2 weeks of immobilization respectivelyGrades 4-6 will require surgeryAggressive rehab is required w/ all grades
Joint mobilizations, flexibility exercises, & strengthening should occur immediatelyProgress as athlete is able to tolerate w/out pain and swellingPadding and protection may be required until pain-free ROM returns
Acromioclavicular Sprain
EtiologyForced abduction and/or external rotation or a direct blow
Signs and SymptomsPain during movement especially when re-creating MOIDecreased ROM and pain w/ palpation
ManagementRICE for 24-48 hours; slingAfter hemorrhaging subsides, cryotherapy, ultrasound and massage can be used along w/ passive and active exercise to regain full ROMWhen full ROM achieved w/out pain, resistance exercises can be initiatedMust be aware of potential development of chronic conditions
Glenohumeral Joint Sprain
EtiologySubluxation involves excessive translation of humeral head w/out complete separation from jointAnterior dislocation is the result of an anterior force on the shoulder, forced abduction and external rotationPosterior dislocation occurs due to forced adduction and internal rotation or falling on an extended and internally rotated shoulder
Signs and SymptomsAnterior dislocation - flattened deltoid, prominent humeral head in axilla; arm carried in slight abduction and external rotation; moderate pain and disability
Acute Subluxations and Dislocations
Signs and SymptomsPosterior dislocation - severe pain and disability; arm carried in adduction and internal rotation; prominent acromion and coracoid process; limited external rotation and elevation
ManagementRICE and reduction by a physicianImmobilize following reduction for 3 weeks Perform isometrics while in slingProgress to resistance exercises as pain allowsReturn to play when athlete has regained 20% of body weight when tested for internal and external rotationProtective bracing
Acute Subluxations and Dislocations
Possible Complications of Shoulder DislocationsBankart lesion - permanent anterior defect of labrumHill Sachs lesion - caused by compression of cancellous bone against anterior glenoid rim creating a divot in the humeral headSLAP lesion - defect in superior labrum that begins posteriorly and extends anteriorly impacting attachment of long head of biceps on labrumBrachial nerves and vessels may be compromisedRotator cuff injuriesBicipital tendon subluxation and transverse ligament rupture
Acute Subluxations and Dislocations
EtiologyTraumatic, atraumatic, microtraumatic (repetitive use), congenital and neuromuscularAs supporting tissue become more lax, mobility increases resulting in damage to other soft tissue structures
Signs and SymptomsAnterior - may have clicking or pain; complain of dead arm during cocking phase (when throwing); pain posteriorly; possible impingement; positive apprehension testPosterior - possible impingement, loss of internal rotation; crepitation; increased laxity; pain anteriorly and posteriorlyMultidirectional - inferior laxity; positive sulcus sign; pain and clicking w/ arm at side; possible signs and symptoms associated w/ anterior and posterior instability
Chronic Recurrent Instabilities
ManagementConservative treatment involves extensive strengthening (rotator cuff and scapula stabilizers)Avoid joint mobilizations and flexibility exercisesVarious harnesses and restraints can be used to limit motionSurgical stabilization may be required to improve function and comfortStrengthening should be continued for a reasonable time before surgery is opted for
Chronic Recurrent Instabilities
EtiologyMechanical compression of supraspinatus tendon, subacromial bursa and long head of biceps tendon due to decreased space under coracoacromial archSeen in over head repetitive activitiesExacerbating factors - laxity and inflammation, postural mal-alignments
kyphotic posture, rounded shoulders
Signs and SymptomsDiffuse pain, pain on palpation of subacromial spaceDecreased strength of external rotators compared to internal rotators; tightness in posterior and inferior capsulePositive impingement and empty can tests
Shoulder Impingement Syndrome
Neer’s progressive stages of shoulder impingementStage I - result of supraspinatus or biceps tendon injury presenting w/ point tenderness, pain w/ abduction and resisted supination w/ external rotation; edema, thickening of rotator cuff and bursa
Occurs in athlete < 25 years oldStage II - permanent thickening and fibrosis of supraspinatus and biceps tendon; presenting w/ aching during activity that worsens at night; May experience restricted arm motionStage III - history of shoulder problems and pain, tendon defect (3/8 “) or possible muscle tear and permanent scar tissue and thickening of rotator cuff
Athletes 25-40 years oldStage IV- infraspinatus and supraspinatus wasting, pain during abduction, tendon defect greater than 3/8”, limited active and full passive ROM, weak resistive ROM and clavicle degeneration
Shoulder Impingement Syndrome
Occurs near insertion on greater tuberosityPartial or complete thickness tearFull thickness tears usually occur in those athletes w/ a long history (generally does not occur in athlete under age 40)Primary mechanism - acute trauma or impingementInvolve supraspinatus or rupture of other rotator cuff tendons
ManagementAnalgesics, electrical stimulation for pain, NSAID’s and ultrasound for inflammationRestore appropriate mechanics and strengthen rotator cuff to depress and compress humeral head to restore spaceStrengthen lower extremity and trunk to reduce stress on shoulderStage III and IV cases may require immobilization and rest and potentially surgery
Rotator cuff tear
EtiologyChronic inflammatory condition due to trauma or overuse -subacromial bursaFibrosis, fluid build-up resulting in constant inflammation
Signs and SymptomsPain w/ motion and tenderness during palpation in subacromial space; positive impingement tests
ManagementCold, ultrasound and NSAID’s to reduce inflammationRemove mechanisms precipitating conditionMaintain full ROM to reduce chances of contractures and adhesions from forming
Shoulder Bursitis
EtiologyContracted and thickened joint capsule w/ little synovial fluidChronic inflammation w/ contracted inelastic rotator cuff musclesGeneralized pain w/ motions (active and passive) resulting in resistance of movement
Signs and SymptomsPain in all directions both w/ active and passive motion
ManagementAggressive joint mobilizations and stretching of tight musculatureElectric stim for pain and ultrasound for deep heating
Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)
EtiologyCompression of brachial plexus, subclavian artery and vein due to 1) decreased space between clavicle and first rib, 2) scalenecompression, 3) compression by pec. minor, or 4) presence of cervical rib
Signs and SymptomsParesthesia and pain, sensation of cold, impaired circulation, muscle weakness, muscle atrophy and radial nerve palsyPositive anterior scalene test, costoclavicular test and hyperabduction test
ManagementConservative treatment - correct anatomical condition through stretching (pec minor and scalenes) and strengthening (trapezius, rhomboids, serratus anterior, erector spinae)
Thoracic Outlet Compression
Biceps Brachii RuptureEtiology
Result of a powerful contractionGenerally occurs near origin of muscle at bicipital groove
Signs and SymptomsAthlete hears a resounding snap and feels sudden and intense painProtruding bulge may appear near middle of bicepsDefinite weakness with elbow flexion and supination
ManagementIce for hemorrhaging, place arm in sling and refer to athleteAthletes will require surgeryOlder individual will be able to rely on brachialis which serves as primary elbow flexor
Biceps Brachii Rupture
EtiologyRepetitive overhead athlete - ballistic activity that involves repeated stretching of biceps tendon causing irritation to the tendon and sheath
Signs and SymptomsTenderness over bicipital groove, swelling, crepitus due to inflammationPain when performing overhead activities
ManagementRest, ice and ultrasound to treat inflammationNSAID’sGradual program of strengthening and stretching
Bicipital Tenosynovitis
EtiologyDirect blow
Signs and SymptomsTransitory paralysis and inability to use extensor muscles of forearm
ManagementRICE for at least 24 hoursProvide protection to contused area to prevent repeated episodes that could cause myositis ossificansMaintain ROM
Contusion of Upper Arm
EtiologyBlunt trauma or stretch type injury
Signs and SymptomsConstant pain, muscle weakness and paralysis or atrophy
ManagementRICETransient muscle weakness may occur w/ quick resolutionIf muscle wasting or atrophy occurs referral to a physician is necessary
Peripheral Nerve Injuries
Rehabilitation of the Shoulder Complex
ImmobilizationWill vary depending on injuryIsometrics can be performed during immobilizationTime in brace or splint are injury specificROM and strengthening are dictated by healing
General Body ConditioningMaintain cardiovascular endurance through cycling, running and walking
Shoulder Joint MobilizationUsed to re-establish appropriate joint arthrokinematicsUsed w/ joint capsule tightness
Rehabilitation of the Shoulder Complex
FlexibilityCodman’s pendulum exercises and sawing motions should begin earlyProgress to active assisted ROM in pain free range (cardinal planes)Should be performed in conjunction w/ rotator cuff and scapula strengthening exercises
Rehabilitation of the Shoulder Complex
Strengthening Exercises
Rehabilitation of the Shoulder Complex
Neuromuscular ControlMust regain appropriate firing sequence for specific musclesBiofeedback can be used to regain controlProprioceptionClosed kinetic chain exercises will be required in gymnasts, wrestlers and weight lifters
Emphasize co-contraction muscle activity
OKC and CKC are necessary in complete rehab plan
Rehabilitation of the Shoulder Complex
Functional ProgressionsIncorporation of sports specific skillsStrengthening that involves PNF patterns (resembles throwing)Gradual and progressive increase in angular velocities
