During a diagnostic test for a rotator cuff tear, you can expect a combination of physical exams and imaging tests. Dr. Singh will typically assess your shoulder's range of motion, strength, and pain through specific movements. He may also perform tests like the drop arm test or empty can test to check for injury. If further evaluation is needed, imaging such as an X-ray, ultrasound, or MRI may be used to confirm the diagnosis and determine the extent of the tear.
The most common rotator cuff tear symptoms include shoulder pain, especially when lifting your arm or reaching, weakness in the shoulder, difficulty performing overhead movements, a cracking or popping sensation, and a limited range of motion. Some people may also experience pain at night or while resting.
When it comes to rotator cuff tears, surgery may be necessary for some individuals, but not always. Other treatment options such as physical therapy, injections, and rest may also be effective in managing the injury. It is important to consult with a specialist like Dr. Singh to determine the best course of action for your specific case.
