Shoulder Arthritis
The two most common types of shoulder arthritis are Osteoarthritis or Rheumatoid arthritis.
Symptoms The most common signs of shoulder arthritis are a stiffness of the shoulder, limited range of motion of the shoulder joint, swelling around the joint area, and pain on moving the shoulder. There may also be a grinding feeling within the joint, or a feeling that something’s ‘catching’. These symptoms can vary in severity and tend to progress as the arthritis become worse. Interestingly though, the symptoms of shoulder arthritis do not always follow a logical progression; they can come and go from one month to another and often appear to be influenced by weather cycles.
