A member asked:

What does bilateral impingement mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Good Question: Impingement is a generic term that doesn't really provide us with an anatomic correlate for the shoulder pain. Learn more about shoulder pain and impingement here: http://www.Theshouldercenter.Com/shoulderpain/2013/shoulder-surgery/spur-acromioplasty-impingement/ and http://theshouldercenter.Com/shoulder-pain.Htm.
