Help for shoulder pain, stiffness and weakness at Dr Pavan's Orthocare — with a plan you understand.
The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body, and that mobility also makes it vulnerable to injury and wear. Shoulder complaints range from mild overuse pain to severe stiffness and loss of function. Our shoulder care service starts with an accurate diagnosis — treatment that follows depends entirely on what is actually wrong.

Most shoulder conditions improve with a structured program of exercises, medication for pain and inflammation, and activity modification. Injections may be discussed for certain conditions. Surgery is considered only when conservative care is not appropriate or has not helped.
Note: Sudden shoulder pain with chest symptoms or after a serious injury needs urgent medical attention. For other persistent shoulder problems, an orthopedic consultation is the right next step.
Accurate shoulder assessment in a calm clinic in Turkayamjal — with honest guidance on every option.
Common causes include rotator cuff problems, frozen shoulder, tendonitis, bursitis and referred pain from the neck. A consultation is needed to distinguish between them.
Frozen shoulder often improves with a combination of gentle stretching, physical therapy and, in some cases, injections. Recovery can take several months.
Surgery is reserved for specific situations such as large rotator cuff tears or after failed conservative treatment. Most shoulder problems are managed without surgery first.
