How shoulder pain affects your life
Even the simplest shoulder and arm movements can become very difficult and cause pain.
Swelling is a natural body response to injuries, which is the most common cause of pain.
Pain can vary depending on the severity of the injury, ranging from moderate to sharp pain.
You may notice cracking, popping, or clicking sounds when moving your shoulder.
