Shoulder Impingement Treatment in India
Relieve the pinching pain in your shoulder with expert care in India. We specialize in conservative and minimally invasive treatments for shoulder impingement to restore pain-free movement.
Benefits of Treating Shoulder Impingement
Get back to moving freely without pain.
Pain-Free Overhead Motion
Resolve the sharp, pinching pain when lifting your arm, allowing you to reach and lift comfortably.
Restored Full Mobility
Regain a smooth and complete range of motion in your shoulder for all daily activities.
Improved Sleep Quality
Alleviate the nagging pain that often worsens at night, allowing for restful sleep.
Prevention of Rotator Cuff Tears
Treating impingement reduces chronic rubbing on the rotator cuff tendons, preventing future tears.
What Causes Shoulder Impingement?
Understanding the mechanics of your shoulder pain.
Subacromial Spurs
Bone spurs on the underside of the acromion (shoulder blade) can narrow the space and rub on the rotator cuff.
Treatment Approach:
Physical therapy can help improve mechanics. Arthroscopic surgery can remove the spur (acromioplasty).
Bursitis
Inflammation of the bursa, a fluid-filled sac that provides cushioning, can reduce the space for the tendons to move.
Treatment Approach:
Treated with anti-inflammatory medication, injections, and physical therapy to reduce inflammation.
Comprehensive Treatment Options
Tailored strategies for lasting relief.
Physiotherapy
The cornerstone of treatment, focusing on posture correction and strengthening the muscles that stabilize the shoulder blade and rotator cuff.
Corticosteroid Injections
A targeted injection into the subacromial space can provide powerful anti-inflammatory relief and break the pain cycle.
Arthroscopic Subacromial Decompression
A minimally invasive surgery to remove bone spurs and inflamed bursal tissue, creating more space for the rotator cuff tendons.
Activity Modification
Temporarily avoiding activities that cause pain, combined with learning proper shoulder mechanics to prevent future irritation.
Our Treatment Journey
Your path to a pain-free shoulder.
Accurate Diagnosis
Based on a detailed physical examination, specific impingement tests, and imaging like X-ray or MRI to identify bone spurs.

Conservative Care First
We start with a structured program of physiotherapy and anti-inflammatory treatments to resolve symptoms without surgery.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
If conservative care fails, a simple arthroscopic decompression is performed to create more space in the shoulder.
