    What Is the Shoulder?

    The shoulder connects the trunk and the arm
    and plays an important role in arm movement.

    The shoulder has the widest range of motion of any joint in the body.
    This is what makes so many tasks with the arms possible.
    Recently, however, with an aging population, more sports activity
    and more smartphone and PC use, shoulder joint conditions are rising sharply.

    Q.

    Shoulder pain makes daily life difficult.

    Dangol Hospital provides in-depth diagnosis and systematic treatment for conditions ranging from shoulder joint disorders to upper limb disorders.

    A.

    The shoulder is the only joint in the body that rotates 360 degrees.
    Because of this, its tendons, bones and other tissues must work together closely,
    and even a small tendon injury can cause pain.

    CORE OF TREATMENTKey to Treating Shoulder Pain

    Common shoulder conditions that cause pain include rotator cuff tears and frozen shoulder.
    Pain can also be caused by calcific tendinitis, shoulder impingement syndrome and other conditions,
    so identifying the exact cause is very important.

    Using X-rays, ultrasound, MRI and digital infrared thermographic imaging (DITI), we accurately assess the location and severity of shoulder pain,
    the extent of the damage and the range of motion of the shoulder joint, and find the treatment that suits your symptoms.
