A rotator cuff tear is one of the most common yet painful shoulder injuries seen among athletes, gym-goers, labourers, office workers, and elderly individuals across Ahmedabad and Gujarat. The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint and allow smooth movement.
When these tendons get injured or torn due to trauma, overuse, aging, or repetitive overhead activities, patients experience severe pain, weakness, stiffness, and difficulty lifting the arm.
