- Abstract
Shoulder pain presents with varying etiology and pathophysiology. At the time of initial evaluation, conservative management is applied in most cases. The therapeutic approach should be based on the cause of pain, which should be determined by the appropriate evaluation. Recovery of range of motion, strengthening of rotator cuffs and other shoulder muscles, and scapular stabilization are the main principles and purposes of shoulder rehabilitation. In this article, we introduce diagnosis-specific management approaches for common presentations of shoulder pain such as adhesive capsulitis, impingement syndrome or rotator cuff tendinosis, and calcific tendinitis.
