Shoulder and its related joints had a great

significance for our body in respect of
performing various exercises. Like whether
throwing a ball, paddling a canoe, lifting
boxes, or pushing a lawn mover, we totally
rely on our shoulder joint.
Well, talk about its instability or injuries, it
is mostly reported in young people and
athletes. For example. In athletes shoulder
instability is caused by certain motions used
in tackling or pitching. It can cause pain that
comes on either quickly or gradually, a
feeling that shoulder is loose, or a weakness
in arm. Treatment involves rest, physical
therapy, and surgery.
A Shoulder separation or sprain is happen
when the ligament that hold the clavicle to
the acromion tear. It mostly happen during
a fall, when your arm or hand is
outstretched.

osteoarthritis, which cause painful
movement. This happen as the smooth
surfaces of the cartilage that line the bone
of the shoulder joint are worn away, and
joint starts to wear out. The most common
