If reaching overhead, getting dressed, or lifting groceries triggers sharp or aching shoulder pain, you’re not alone.
This type of pain is extremely common for adults over 50 and it usually means something inside the joint is irritated or inflamed.
When the shoulder isn’t gliding smoothly, everyday motions become painful.
Inflamed or irritated tendons make overhead motion painful, especially between 60–120 degrees.
Worn cartilage causes grinding, stiffness, and pain with lifting or rotation.
Tight tissues or bone spurs pinch the rotator cuff when the arm rises.
An inflamed bursa sac becomes painful during overhead movement.
Weak stabilizers force other structures to overwork and become irritated.
Old tears or strains flare up with repetitive use.
Most people compensate with awkward motions, leading to:
Early care makes recovery faster, ignoring it slows healing.
Medication only numbs the symptoms.
Rest alone often leads to more stiffness.
Cortisone may help briefly, but repeated shots can weaken tissue.
To fix shoulder pain, you need to reduce inflammation and improve joint mechanics, not just mask pain.
