The painful shoulder: Part I. Extrinsic disorders
Am Fam Physician.
1991 Jan.
Abstract
Shoulder disorders are most commonly manifested by pain and limited function. Careful history and examination help the physician localize the problem to the shoulder joint, the surrounding tissues or adjacent sites that can cause referred pain to the shoulder. Common extrinsic causes of shoulder pain include postural problems and cervical spine disorders.
