Simple Shoulder Tests That Reveal the Problem | Chiropractor in Fuquay Varina, NC

Описание: Shoulder pain isn’t always as simple as a sore muscle 😖 and guessing will keep you stuck longer than you need to be. At Pinecrest Chiropractic in Fuquay-Varina, NC 🏥, we use specific orthopedic tests to pinpoint the exact cause of your shoulder pain so we can treat it correctly 🎯.

Every new patient starts with a range-of-motion exam 🔄, because differences side-to-side tell us a lot. Limited motion in one direction may point to muscle impingement ⚡, while restrictions in all directions can indicate arthritis or frozen shoulder ❄️🦴. That alone gives us powerful insight.

From there, we assess how well your shoulder blade muscles are working together 🧠. These stabilizers should share the workload - but when they don’t, the upper traps often take over 😤, leading to tension, pain, and poor movement patterns. That imbalance is a huge contributor to chronic shoulder issues.

We also perform targeted tests, like the empty can test 🥫 which stresses the supraspinatus - the most commonly injured rotator cuff muscle 🏋️‍♂️. Pain or weakness here is a major red flag 🚩. Finally, we evaluate the biceps tendon, a frequent source of front-shoulder pain, through palpation and resisted movement tests 💥.
