Shoulder Doctors You Can Trust to Provide the Treatment You Need

Your shoulders are two of the most dynamic and complex joints in your body. They need to be in proper order to provide the freedom of movement and strength needed to perform countless tasks throughout the day. Almost every action you take, from putting away groceries, typing on a computer, to playing sports, and cleaning the house, requires use of your shoulders. It’s no wonder why they are so prone to injury.

Thankfully, at Premier Bone & Joint Centers, our world-class shoulder doctors have the training, knowledge, and experience to treat a host of shoulder injuries and conditions.

When to see a shoulder specialist

If you’ve injured your shoulder and are experiencing any of the following symptoms, contact us right away:

  • Pain in the shoulder, especially when lifting your arm over your head and sleeping on your side

  • Tenderness, weakness, stiffness, numbness, or tingling in your shoulder

  • Crunching sensation when you move your shoulder

  • Reduced range of motion

These could all indicate injuries or shoulder conditions such as tendonitis, arthritis, bursitis, AC separation, dislocation, sprain, compressed nerves, or a rotator cuff tear, all of which can be treated by our board-certified and fellowship-trained shoulder specialists.

TORN ROTATOR CUFF — ONE OF THE MOST COMMON SHOULDER INJURIES

The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that work to stabilize the shoulder. Tears to the rotator cuff can occur when the same overhead or pulling motion is repeated over and over, which is why this is a common injury for athletes such as tennis players, baseball pitchers, volleyball players, and martial artists.
