The shoulder is a complex anatomical structure consisting of four joints. Movements at the shoulder enable us to move and position our arm and hand in space. The muscles of the shoulder provide a stable base for these upper extremity movements. The dynamic relationship between the shoulder muscles, ligaments and bony articulations allows for significant movement, but this is at the expense of stability. The shoulder is, therefore, susceptible to dysfunction and instability.
Common shoulder injuries include sprains, strains, dislocation or subluxation and other degenerative conditions. It is essential to understand the anatomical features of the shoulder when assessing and treating these conditions.
