Advanced interventional care and non-surgical recovery pathways at our specialized pain management centre.

Overview

Shoulder Pain Treatment | Shoulder Joint Arthritis & Advanced Non-Surgical Relief

Expert Care for Shoulder Arthritis & Chronic Shoulder Pain Without Surgery

Shoulder pain is a common problem, especially in middle-aged and elderly individuals. One of the major causes is shoulder joint arthritis, where the smooth cartilage in the joint wears down, leading to pain, stiffness, and restricted movement.

At our Pain Management Centre, we offer advanced, non-surgical treatment for shoulder arthritis, including radiofrequency ablation (RF ablation), along with physiotherapy and rehabilitation for long-term relief.

What is Shoulder Joint Arthritis?

Shoulder joint arthritis is a condition where the cartilage cushioning the joint gradually wears away, causing bones to rub against each other.

Common Symptoms

Persistent shoulder pain

Stiffness and reduced range of motion

Difficulty lifting the arm

Pain during daily activities

Grinding or clicking sensation in the joint

This condition can significantly affect independence and quality of life.

Causes of Shoulder Arthritis

Age-related wear and tear (degenerative changes)

Previous shoulder injury or trauma

Repetitive strain on the joint

Inflammatory conditions

Long-standing shoulder problems

Shoulder Arthritis Treatment Options

1. Conservative Management

Activity modification

Physiotherapy

Lifestyle changes

Pain-relieving medications

When pain persists despite these measures, advanced interventional pain procedures provide effective relief.

Radiofrequency Ablation (RF Ablation) for Shoulder Pain

Radiofrequency ablation (RF ablation) is an advanced, minimally invasive treatment used to relieve chronic shoulder pain caused by arthritis.

This procedure works by targeting the nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals from the shoulder joint.
