The Area’s Most Advanced Shoulder Treatment
Get Expert Care from Our Dedicated Shoulder Specialists
The joints and muscles in your shoulders are vital to your ability to perform everyday tasks such as lifting, carrying, driving, and writing. In fact, the shoulder is the most movable joint in the body. Your shoulder is less stable than other joints because the ball (the humerus) is larger than the socket (the glenoid) that holds it. So, when you dislocate your shoulder or start to experience pain or discomfort in these ball-and-socket joints, it’s important to get the right care as soon as possible.
To provide relief from shoulder pain caused by injury or inflammation, OrthoUnited physicians can use conservative methods such as medications and physical therapy or arthroplasty surgery, if required. Shoulder replacement removes the damaged or diseased joint and replaces it with an artificial shoulder implant (prosthesis) that is designed to move like a normal, healthy joint. Our highly-respected shoulder specialists provide advanced treatment for these complex joints that you rely on every single day. When shoulder pain is keeping you from doing what you love, put your trust in our talented doctors!
