Shoulder Impingement Syndrome.
Shoulder impingement is the most common diagnosis for shoulder pain. Shoulder impingement syndrome has been scrutinized as a misleading "umbrella" term, due to its vague and nonspecific context. It is better subcategorized into subacromial, internal, and subcoracoid impingement. The evaluation and treatment algorithm for each is grossly similar. A thorough history, focused physical examination, and standard radiographs are the first steps. Advanced imaging with MRI or ultrasound may be useful. The mainstay of treatment includes physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and injections. Surgical treatment is reserved for refractory cases, and includes decompression, debridement, and/or repair of injured structures.
