Common Shoulder Problems & Treatments

Whatever’s Holding Your Shoulder Back, We Have A Plan For It.

Rotator Cuff Tendinitis

Inflammation of the tendons that stabilize the shoulder — a dull ache, pain reaching overhead, and trouble sleeping on that side. Treated with cortisone or PRP injections, and surgery only for severe cases.

Labral Tears

Damage to the ring of cartilage around the shoulder socket — SLAP tears are the most common. Symptoms include catching sensations and instability, treated with injections or surgical repair.

Rotator Cuff Tears

Partial or full-thickness tears from trauma or overuse, causing sharp pain, weakness, and limited range of motion. Dr. Adams pioneered the REGENETEN Bioinductive Implant for minimally invasive repair.

Shoulder Bursitis

Inflammation of the fluid-filled bursa from repetitive motion, causing localized pain, swelling, and a warm sensation around the joint.

Regain Your Edge

If A Shoulder Injury Is Slowing You Down, Call The Shoulder Doc.

From first consult to full recovery, Dr. Adams builds a plan around your goals — not just your imaging.
