Dr. Streit's Clinical Perspective
Shoulder symptoms often overlap. Night pain may come from the rotator cuff, arthritis, or inflammation. Stiffness may come from arthritis or frozen shoulder. Weakness may reflect pain inhibition or a true tendon tear. The correct diagnosis comes from matching the history, physical examination, imaging, and patient goals.
The goal is not simply to name the condition. The goal is to understand which problem is causing the symptoms and which treatment offers the best chance of restoring comfortable, durable shoulder function.
