Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Throwing pain: Pain with overhand throwing in a 45 year old may be as simple as a tight capsule in the back of the shoulder. This can be simply treated with stretching. More significant injuries may be a tear of the labrum or rotator cuff tendons. You should be evaluated by an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in shoulder problems.
