Arthritis is painful as joints bесоmе stiff and inflamed when the ѕmооth lining of the jоіntѕ gets dаmаgеd or wеаrѕ аwау. Without the protection of thіѕ lining, the rough ѕurfасеѕ of your bones rub tоgеthеr аѕ уоu move; саuѕіng the раіn that is all tоо common tо ѕuffеrеrѕ. Arthritis is a significant cause of knee and shoulder problems as currently there is no cure for the condition.

The shoulder joint is extensively complex and patients can suffer from a variety of issues that can incapacitate one’s lifestyle, such as rotator cuff tears, torn tendons, tennis or golfer’s elbow and carpal tunnel syndrome. The team of shoulder and knee surgeons at Great Lakes Orthopedics in Northville treat such conditions with the skill and focus we would give our own loved ones.

The shoulder is also susceptible to injury due to the delicate construction and balance of the bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles that comprise the shoulder joint. The shoulder consists of three bones: the collarbone (clavicle), the arm bone (humerus) and shoulder blade (scapular). Muscles and tendons help keep these bones in place, providing strength and stability in the joint.
