Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Shoulder likely: Shoulder problems such as rotator cuff injury, arthritis, and subacromial bursitis can make use of the arm painful. Heat, non steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and range of motion exercises, and rotator cuff strengthening can at times help. If persistent, see a hand or orthopedic surgeon who specializes in problems of the hand to shoulder.
