Shoulder pain when lifting your arm? If reaching for a shelf, putting on clothes, exercising or lifting your arm overhead has started becoming uncomfortable, the cause may not always be the same. Shoulder pain when lifting arm can be associated with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain, tendon overload, frozen shoulder, bursitis, joint problems or, in some cases, symptoms referred from the neck. In our latest PhysioVeda India guide, we explain why shoulder pain may appear when raising the arm, what the location and pattern of pain may indicate, the difference between painful movement and true shoulder stiffness, and when a physiotherapy assessment should be considered. The guide also explains how shoulder movement, strength, functional activities and contributing factors may be assessed before a personalised rehabilitation plan is recommended. If shoulder pain is affecting your work, gym training, sleep or everyday activities, consider getting it assessed rather than repeatedly avoiding the movement.
