A member asked:
What are the most common causes and symptoms of shoulder impingement? can it be caused or aggravated by poor sleeping position or sleeping on a poor quality mattress?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shoulder impingement: Causes of shoulder impingement are usually overuse, shoulder labrum or rotator cuff tears, and certain anatomic configurations of the shoulder joint. I wouldn't ascribe impingement syndrome to sleeping patterns or poor mattress.
