Pain in this area can cause weakness, numbness and stiffness and can restrict movement. This can have a significant impact on everyday activities such as brushing teeth and getting dressed, using a computer, and driving, so it is important to find out what the underlying cause is as soon as possible.These symptoms could be due to an accident such as a sports injury, or fall, or from longer term chronic wear and tear from a repetitive action, and conditions such as arthritis.A shoulder MRI scan may be able to identify the cause of unexplained shoulder pain or shed further light on a problem earlier identified on an x-ray, showing a detailed picture of not only bone structure, but tendons, muscles, cartilage, and ligaments, as well as blood vessels, infections, and tumours.
