Shoulder discomfort often shows up during simple activities like reaching overhead or lifting objects. When patients visit Dr. Joel Prasad in Bengaluru, the evaluation focuses on how wear and tear in the shoulder joint is affecting mobility. Understanding the stage of arthritis helps in choosing the most effective treatment path.
Shoulder arthritis reduces smooth joint movement, creating stiffness and a dull, persistent ache. Treatment may involve targeted exercises, medication support, joint lubrication techniques, and posture corrections to ease pressure on the joint. These steps aim to maintain movement and reduce episodes of shoulder locking or catching.
Delaying care can lead to reduced joint space and worsening stiffness, making daily tasks more challenging. Early intervention helps preserve shoulder strength and slows down further degeneration. With the right plan, patients often regain better arm function and feel more comfortable during routine activities.
