How can i stop chronic shoulder pains? age 47y.

Depends: Lots of possible causes so need to know more. Could be anything from tendinitis to bursitis to labral or rotator cuff tears. So you need a diagnosis which is usually not a problem with a good exam, and then maybe an x-ray and mri. If therapy, modification in use and possibly nsaids don't work then targeted injections often do. Best of luck.

Shoulder pain: There are many causes of shoulder pain. At 47, most common relate to the rotator cuff tendons. I recommend seeing an orthopedic surgeon for a diagnosis and specific treatment plan. Good luck!

Correct diagnosis: Its important to establish a diagnosis. Shoulder pain could from the shoulder or referred. Common referred sources include: abdomen, heart and neck. Shoulder sources include: arthritis, labral tears, instability, tendinitis, rotator cuff tears, bursitis, painful bony spurs etc. Therefore, proper diagnosis is essential to stopping the pain. See an orthopedic surgeon. Good luck!
