    Rotator cuff tear and surgical repair. Benefits of surgery are unclear as of 2019. [10] Several instances when surgery may be recommended include: 20 to 30-year-old active person with an acute tear and severe functional deficit from a specific event [61] 30 to 50-year-old person with an acute rotator cuff tear secondary to a specific event [61]

    The posterior capsule is a band of fibrous tissue that interconnects with tendons of the rotator cuff of the shoulder. Four muscles and their tendons make up the rotator cuff. They cover the outside of the shoulder to hold, protect and move the joint. Overuse can lead to a buildup of tissue around the posterior capsule called hypertrophy. The ...

    The tendons at the ends of the rotator cuff muscles can become torn, leading to pain and restricted movement of the arm. A torn rotator cuff can occur following trauma to the shoulder or it can occur through the "wear and tear" on tendons, most commonly the supraspinatus tendon found under the acromion.

    The injury may vary from mild inflammation to involvement of most of the rotator cuff. When the rotator cuff tendon becomes inflamed and thickened, it may get trapped under the acromion. Squeezing of the rotator cuff is called impingement syndrome. [citation needed] An inflamed bursa is called bursitis. Tendinitis and impingement syndrome are ...

    Shoulder impingement syndrome is a syndrome involving tendonitis (inflammation of tendons) of the rotator cuff muscles as they pass through the subacromial space, the passage beneath the acromion. It is particularly associated with tendonitis of the supraspinatus muscle. [1] This can result in pain, weakness, and loss of movement at the ...

    Rotator cuff stretches are preferred when constructing an exercise treatment plan. Some specific stretches for the rotator cuff include, the wall press, shoulder roll, retraction of the shoulder blade, etc. ECE (eccentric contraction exercises) is proven to be more effective with pain since the muscle is being elongated.
