This condition often leads to stabbing pain in the heel, which can worsen with prolonged standing, walking, or running.

MUST READ ABOUT ROTATOR CUFF TEAR TREATMENT

Blog Posts, Dr. Robert Bacci

The rotator cuff is a crucial component of the shoulder that allows it to function. It connects the upper arm bone (humerus) to the shoulder blade (scapula) with four muscles, each of which has a tendon that attaches to different parts of the scapula. These tendons form a “cuff” around the head of the humerus, and all the muscles work together to control and stabilize the shoulder.

But when any of the tendons of the rotator cuff becomes injured or torn, the tendon becomes detached from the head of the humerus, and the injury is called a rotator cuff tear.

Treatment often requires a multifaceted approach due to the numerous variables that contribute to a patient’s perception of pain and response to treatment.

As we age, our bodies experience a series of changes that often make everyday activities more difficult. Decreased flexibility, a decline in posture, and pain within one or more joints are just a few of the many changes that frequently occur throughout the aging process. These types of changes can lead to decreased mobility and less physical activity, which can in turn diminish one’s quality of life and potentially lead to psychological issues like depression and anxiety.
