Rotator cuff tendinitis is a tearing and swelling of the rotator cuff, or the muscles and tendons that hold the upper arm in the shoulder joint. Pain is the main symptom. The area is injured when the arm is repeatedly moved over the head, as in such activities as swimming or racket sports. After a while, pain also is felt as the arm is moved forward, especially when pushing things away. Treatment includes resting the tendons and strengthening the shoulder.
Surgery sometimes is needed for a big injury or tear.
It would be a good idea to see an orthopaedic doctor for a diagnoses and treatment plan. Fracture slow to heal I am recovering from a Jones fracture of the left foot. I have been very active in martial arts, and in fact, that may be the way I broke the foot. I am now on a hard shoe. The pain is coming back with the cast off and the shoe on.
