Shoulder Pain Treatment Dhaka | Rotator Cuff & Frozen Shoulder Relief - AdvanCell
The shoulder is one of the most mobile and complex joints in the body, allowing for an incredible range of motion crucial for daily tasks, work, and sports. However, this very mobility makes it vulnerable to injury and pain. Whether it's a dull ache, sharp pain with movement, stiffness limiting your reach, or weakness preventing you from lifting, shoulder pain can be incredibly disruptive, affecting sleep, work, hobbies, and overall independence.
At AdvanCell in Dhaka, we deeply understand the frustration and limitations caused by shoulder pain. Our specialized team of pain management experts, including physicians and physiotherapists, offers a comprehensive and personalized approach to accurately diagnose and effectively treat your shoulder pain. Our commitment extends beyond temporary relief; we focus on identifying and addressing the root cause, restoring function, and empowering you with strategies for long-term comfort and prevention.
You could significantly benefit from our expert guidance for shoulder pain if you are experiencing:
Persistent Pain: In your shoulder joint, arm, or radiating to the neck.
Stiffness or Limited Range of Motion: Difficulty lifting your arm, reaching overhead, or performing everyday tasks.
Weakness: Especially when trying to lift or carry objects.
Pain Worsened by Movement: Such as reaching, throwing, or sleeping on the affected side.
Clicking, Popping, or Grinding Sensations: In the shoulder.
Specific Conditions: Such as Rotator Cuff Tendinitis or Tear, Shoulder Impingement Syndrome, Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis), Bursitis, Bicep Tendinitis, or Arthritis.
Seeking Non-Surgical Solutions: For your shoulder pain.
Difficulty Sleeping: Due to shoulder discomfort.
The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint formed by three bones: the humerus (upper arm bone), scapula (shoulder blade), and clavicle (collarbone). It's supported by a complex network of muscles (especially the rotator cuff), tendons, ligaments, and bursae (fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction). Pain can arise from various issues within this intricate structure:
Rotator Cuff Injuries: Inflammation (tendinitis) or tears in the group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder and allow it to rotate and lift. This is a very common cause of pain.
Impingement Syndrome: Occurs when the rotator cuff tendons get pinched between the acromion (part of the shoulder blade) and the humerus during arm elevation.
Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis): A condition where the shoulder joint capsule thickens and tightens, severely restricting movement and causing significant pain, often developing gradually.
Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursa, the fluid-filled sacs that cushion the joint.
Tendinitis: Inflammation of any of the tendons in the shoulder (e.g., bicep tendinitis).
Arthritis: Degenerative changes in the shoulder joint (osteoarthritis) or inflammatory conditions (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis).
Shoulder Instability: When the head of the upper arm bone is forced out of the shoulder socket, often from a dislocation.
Fractures: Breaks in the bones of the shoulder.
Overuse or Repetitive Strain: Common in athletes (e.g., swimmers, pitchers) or certain occupations.
Referred Pain: Pain originating from the neck or upper back can sometimes be felt in the shoulder.
At AdvanCell, we implement a precise, personalized, and comprehensive strategy for managing your shoulder pain. Our method is built upon:
Accurate Diagnosis: Pinpointing the exact source of your pain to ensure targeted and effective treatment.
Personalized Treatment Plans: Crafting unique recovery pathways tailored to your specific condition, lifestyle, and goals.
Non-Surgical Emphasis: Prioritizing conservative, highly effective treatments to help you avoid invasive procedures whenever possible.
Holistic Care: Addressing not just physical symptoms, but also contributing lifestyle factors, ergonomic habits, and empowering you with self-management techniques.
Long-Term Prevention: Providing you with the knowledge and tools to prevent future pain episodes and maintain optimal shoulder health.
Our Shoulder Pain Management programs at AdvanCell are designed for comprehensive relief and lasting recovery:
Comprehensive Diagnostic Assessment:
Detailed Medical History: A thorough discussion about your pain's characteristics, onset, aggravating/relieving factors, and how it impacts your daily life.
Thorough Physical Examination: Assessing shoulder range of motion, muscle strength (especially rotator cuff), palpation for tenderness, and specific orthopedic tests to identify the likely source of pain (e.g., for impingement, tears, instability).
Postural & Movement Analysis: Identifying biomechanical inefficiencies and harmful movement patterns.
Diagnostic Imaging Referrals (If Necessary): If red flags are present, or to confirm structural issues like rotator cuff tears, severe inflammation, or arthritis, we may recommend X-rays, MRI, or Ultrasound scans.
Personalized Treatment Plan Development:
Based on your precise diagnosis, we create a multi-modal treatment strategy uniquely tailored to your needs.
Targeted Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation:
Therapeutic Exercises: Specific stretching to restore lost range of motion (crucial for frozen shoulder), strengthening exercises for the rotator cuff muscles and scapular (shoulder blade) stabilizers to improve shoulder stability and mechanics.
Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques (mobilization, soft tissue release) to improve joint movement, reduce muscle spasms, and address soft tissue restrictions.
Posture Correction: Education and exercises to improve overall posture, which directly impacts shoulder mechanics.
Functional Training: Gradual return to activities, sports-specific rehabilitation.
Advanced Pain Relief Therapies:
Therapeutic Massage: To release muscle tension and improve blood circulation in the shoulder and surrounding muscles.
Hot/Cold Therapy: For immediate pain relief and reducing inflammation.
Electrotherapy: Such as TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) or interferential current (IFC) for pain modulation.
Wet Needling: Our specialized technique targeting myofascial trigger points (muscle knots) in the shoulder and surrounding muscles to quickly release tension and alleviate referred pain.
Medication Management (in collaboration with your physician): Guidance on appropriate use of anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, or pain relievers if required, focusing on short-term relief as part of a broader recovery plan.
Referral for Injections (If Indicated): For severe inflammation (e.g., bursitis, tendinitis), a referral for corticosteroid or PRP injections may be discussed and coordinated with a specialist.
Ergonomic & Lifestyle Counseling:
Advice on modifying activities, proper lifting techniques, and optimizing sleeping positions.
Guidance on sports mechanics for athletes to prevent re-injury.
Long-Term Prevention & Maintenance:
Developing a home exercise program to maintain shoulder strength, flexibility, and proper mechanics.
Education on self-care techniques to prevent future episodes.
Significant Pain Reduction: Alleviate chronic aches, acute pain episodes, and pain with movement.
Improved Range of Motion & Flexibility: Regain your ability to lift, reach, and move your arm freely.
