What Is Shoulder Pain?
Shoulder pain is the term used to describe any kind of discomfort or pain in the shoulder area. It is made up of ligaments, muscles, tendons, and bones. When any of these components are injured or inflamed, it can lead to shoulder joint pain, stiffness, and discomfort.

Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
The most typical reasons are as follows:
