8 Common Facts about Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Symptoms of Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Shoulder impingement may occur gradually or suddenly. Typical signs include arm weakness, shoulder aching or pain at night, worse pain when lifting the arm overhead, and pain in the outer and top part of the shoulder, and shoulder stiffness. These problems are quite common in other shoulder issues, such as rotator cuff tendonitis or bursitis. Therefore, it is better to visit a healthcare provider to seek a precise diagnosis. [2]
