  2. Transverse humeral ligament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_humeral_ligament

    The transverse humeral ligament (Brodie's ligament [1]) forms a broad band bridging the lesser and greater tubercle of the humerus. Its attachments are limited superior to the epiphysial line. By enclosing the canal of the bicipital groove (intertubercular groove), it functions to hold the long head of the biceps tendon within the bicipital groove.

    Pain with no associated popping might indicate bicipital tendinopathy. A snapping indicates a tear or laxity of the transverse humeral ligament, which would prevent the ligament from securing the tendon in the groove. Pain at the superior glenohumeral joint is indicative of a SLAP tear. [4]

    There are also three other ligaments attaching the lesser tubercle of the humerus to lateral scapula and are collectively called the glenohumeral ligaments. [ citation needed ] The transverse humeral ligament , which passes from the lesser tubercle to the greater tubercle of humerus , covers the intertubercular groove , in which the long head ...

  5. Shoulder impingement syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_impingement_syndrome

    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 ...

    Lastly, the thawing stage is where pain becomes minimal, and range of motion is restored. Exercise increases blood flow to the muscles affected which enhances blood flow. Regular exercise is a crucial part of the healing stages of adhesive capsulitis. Specific exercises are highlighted to enhance recovery.

  7. Rotator cuff tear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotator_cuff_tear

    If pain disappears and shoulder function remains good, no further testing is pursued. The test helps to confirm that the pain arises primarily from the shoulder, rather than being referred from the neck, heart, or gut. If pain is relieved, the test is considered positive for rotator-cuff impingement, of which tendinitis and bursitis are major ...

  8. Rotator cuff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotator_cuff

    A common cause of shoulder pain in rotator cuff impingement syndrome is tendinosis, which is an age-related and most often self-limiting condition. [ 14 ] Studies show that there is moderate evidence that hypothermia (cold therapy) and exercise therapy used together are more effective than simply waiting for surgery and they suggest the best ...

  9. Osborne's ligament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne's_ligament

    Osborne's ligament, also Osborne's band, Osborne's fascia, Osborne's arcade, arcuate ligament of Osborne, or the cubital tunnel retinaculum, refers to either the connective tissue which spans the humeral and ulnar heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) or another distinct tissue located between the olecranon process of the ulna and the medial epicondyle of the humerus.
