ROTATOR CUFF is correct.
Rotator cuff tendinitis is an inflammation of one or more of the muscle
tendons
that hold the ball of the shoulder joint tightly against the socket.
Usually it affects
the tendon of the supraspinatus muscle. Supraspinatus tendinitis; as it
is properly
known, is one of the most frequent causes of shoulder pain.
Rita, has it and I can tell you that it can be quite painful.
Unfortunately for her
due to being allergic to anything containing aspirin which most pain
killer drugs
contain she must go without the usual prescribed drugs.
She has had a great deal of therapy which can only offer temporary
relief.
For most sufferers even with effective drugs it is usually a lasting
condition and
something one must learn to live.
