Heal Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy with Regenerative Therapy Naturally

The rotator cuff is formed by the attachment of a group of muscles that help in stabilising the glenohumeral joint. These rotator cuff muscles help us to pull anything or lift the arms over the head. Any sudden and unexpected injury of these muscles due to the excessive and repeated arm movements may cause rotator cuff tendinopathy. The risk of rotator cuff tendinopathy increases with age. Hence, this condition leads to strain or inflammation followed by the partial or complete tear of the rotator cuff, if not treated properly.

Here comes the one-stop solution named regenerative therapy offered by Medica Stem Cells clinic in the UK. Regenerative therapy can be the right alternative to the surgery. To know-how, let us go through its mode of treatment in detail. Before that, it is time to know the varied causes and symptoms of rotator cuff tendinopathy to know the significance of the right nonsurgical natural therapy. So, let us go through the causes and symptoms of rotator cuff tendinopathy in detail.

Causes of rotator cuff tendinopathy

The varied causes of rotator cuff tendinopathy can be

• Excessive use of the rotator cuff muscles

• Bursa (fluid-filled sacs in the rotator cuff) inflammation that leads to bursitis.

• Degenerative damage

• Trauma includes a sudden injury, a fall, or a car accident

Risk factors

• Increasing age

• Sports that involve repetitive use of arms like tennis, archery, baseball, or cricket

• Several occupations, like house painting or carpentry that involve repeated overhead arm movements

• Family history

Symptoms of rotator cuff tendinopathy

Even if you are experiencing rotator cuff tendinopathy, it may take months or years for the symptoms to become prominent. The common symptoms of rotator cuff tendinopathy include:

• Intense and persistent pain, which increases during night times

• Spasm while doing strenuous activities

• Difficulty in range of motion

• Discomfort while sleeping on the affected shoulder

• Stiffness

• Numbness

• Tenderness

• Weakness

• Difficulty to comb the hair

• Difficulty in bringing the hand behind your back

Treatment of rotator cuff tendinopathy

According to the severity of the injury, treatment can range from the initial rest and ice therapy to surgery. The varied nonsurgical modalities include RICE (Rest, Ice therapy, Compression, and Elevation) therapy, physical therapy (stretching, strengthening, and range of motion exercises), administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and local corticosteroid injection. All these therapies aim at reducing pain as well as inflammation. They prove to be the right therapeutic tool for short term pain relief in rotator cuff tendinopathies but not in long-term pain reduction as well as functional improvement. Moreover, the adverse effects of corticosteroid injections, especially for the elders, should also be considered. Corticosteroids may even weaken the regions of an injected tendon as well as the surrounding areas and make it more prone to rupture. As a last resort, the physician may recommend surgery to treat rotational cuff tendinopathy. The varied surgical approaches include arthroscopic repair and shoulder replacement according to the severity.
