Restoring External Rotation in the Shoulder

Shoulder problems are common, and one of the issues that many individuals face is restricted external rotation in the shoulder. This limitation can lead to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, affecting daily activities and overall well-being.

Understanding the Importance of External Rotation

External rotation in the shoulder is essential for various movements, such as reaching overhead, throwing, and reaching behind the back. When this range of motion is limited, it can impact not only the shoulder joint but also the surrounding muscles and tissues.

Causes of Restricted External Rotation

There are several factors that can contribute to limited external rotation in the shoulder, including injuries, muscle imbalances, poor posture, and overuse. Identifying the underlying cause is crucial in developing an effective treatment plan.
