- Are you dealing with a rotator cuff injury? If you answered yes, don't worry! Regardless of the severity of your rotator cuff injury, there is a solution out there for you. We have helped thousands of people with rotator cuff issues, it just comes down to quality education and exercises. Watch the full video as Craig goes over a sample shoulder pain case with Arash as his patient to discuss different presentations of rotator cuff injuries as well as demonstrate different movements and tests we use to investigate the rotator cuff. You'll also learn exercises you can perform to determine if and what rotator cuff muscle tendon may be contributing to your issue.
A rotator cuff injury is an insult to the muscle or tendon associated with either the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis, and/or teres minor muscles. The most common complaints associated with rotator cuff issues are pain and weakness. If you see a doctor you might hear things such as a rotator cuff strain or tendinitis. If you end up getting imaging such as an MRI - you may read and hear things such as a full-thickness tear, partial-thickness tear, tendinosis of the supraspinatus tendon, or calcific tendinopathy. You may even hear things that seem unrelated such as bursitis, impingement, or muscle atrophy and fatty degeneration.
This can sound scary and make you feel completely overwhelmed. However, no matter what any doctor says or an MRI report says, you have options and you have reasons to be optimistic!

DISCLAIMER: This video is purely for educational purposes. These tests and exercises are not fail-proof for diagnosing or fixing rotator cuff issues - it is more complex than this. Remember, a rotator cuff tear does not equate to pain 100% of the time. More importantly - you should invest your time and energy into addressing your functional limitations (which we cover below) as this will improve your shoulder versus searching for a label.

Helpful hints to help identify shoulder cuff issue
Thank you. A gem of RUclips
Thanks guys, from a physical therapist student 💪🏻😊
yes!
For the next episode maybe you guys can demonstrate a low back pain evaluation!
yes! we can look into real life evaluations.
I don't have pain but I have clicking on external and the 3rd test. I fell out of a defectivePOS nectar mattress that sunk in on the side and caused me to roll off on the floor. Right on my shoulder
Hey guys, great video! Could you please point me to the source that supports the use of isometric exercises in differentiating whether the tendon is involved or not? Thanks a lot and keep up the great work.
yes we have a shoulder program addressing this!
Hi guys! I'm thinking of doing yo had your Shoulder Program. I injured my shoulder almost a year ago, and it's still hurting, and my mobility is getting to be less and less. My doctor hasn't been much help, only ordered an x-ray, but no MRI. She sent me to a physical therapist, and I have to say I wasn't impressed. After examining me, she still has no diagnosis! But she wants me to come in for PT 2x a week. I don't see how you can start treatment without a diagnosis? Seems a bit negligent to me.
Anyway, this is why I hate going to doctors. I think I am just going to start a shoulder program, and work through it on my own.
Thanks for the video, and I have already checked out your website and the shoulder program!
Thanks guys!
glad you enjoyed!
Wow, thank you guys!!! I'm a 44 yr old male that's been having issues since doing pull ups with my 22 yr old son. Yeah I know, that's dumb. (Sticking and popping with shoulder flexion and sharp pain in rear lower delt, like near back of my armpit with can opener). Your video has been extremely helpful in pointing me in the right direction. I will be doing these exercises to keep healthy. Any other ideas of whatay be going on? I can't say thank you enough for this video. Thank You!!!!!
I have the same issue. Did you recover of it?
Thank you guys. That's very helpful for young patients. But would you also do it like that in a patient in his late 50's. How many isometric would you prescribe per muscle or movement. Do you also have information videos for professionals? In terms of diagnostic paths?
You are very welcome! We are very glad you found this helpful! You can read more about rotator cuff information we have here! Hope this is helpful for you :)

Awesome. Will give it a try.
yes!
Great video. I have your knee program and shoulder program. Curious if you could lead me in right direction. When i try to grab other side of back with left arm almost hugging yourself style and then while still in that position I bring that elbow up in front of my face I have shoulder pain. Also pain when dumbbell press regular grip. Not as much pain on neutral grip. Thanks for the videos.
Thank you very much for your question! We also have an overhead mobility program that can be helpful if lacking shoulder mobility. Also, here are some articles on bench pressing without shoulder pain as well as shoulder mobility! Hope this is helpful :)

My front shoulder and back hurt Daily it goes back-and-forth but the front is usually the worst I can still lift and stuff but it hurt but when I lay down at night it hurts really bad in the front do you have any idea what that is and I almost feels like I can feel my thick band of muscle if I press hard and go across my shoulder
One request to all three of you- though I am exercise enthusiast, I don't have clarity about various test aspects of rotator cuff muscles.Just tell me a comprehensive exercise plan to workout my rotator cuff s. 🙏
theprehabguys.com/rotator-cuff-prehab-program/ we've got a rotator cuff specific program here!
Thanku guys you are doing a geart job.I m suffering with rotator cuff issue from last 8 months but now confused about the treatment as i have tried many therapies but not getting any benefit, i hope u guys can help?
Hello! We do have a rotator cuff prehab program you can find more on it at this link!

What's the timeline on recovery if it's the tendon issue for external rotation pain? Also will bench pressing cause any issues while under the rehab period?
Good question, Neil. Tendon healing time of the rotator cuff can take upwards of 6-12 months depending on the involvement and severity. This would be a great program for you if dealing with rotator cuff involvement. theprehabguys.com/rotator-cuff-prehab-program/
Hello Prehab guys . I was diagnosed with SLAP (superior labrum anterior to posterior)on my left shoulder in MRI scan along with tendinosis of subscapular tendon. How many days does it take to complete recovery for labrum injury and what are some rehab exercises?? Do I require surgery?? Kindly help me
have you seen our shoulder program? not always does this require surgery. Typically we recommend rehab through physical therapy until exhausted prior to taking the next step.
So if It’s a tendon related issue which mine is if I over use my shoulder/rotator cuff and isometrics help me reduce pain then it’s fine to follow up with some eccentrics since the pain has subsided because I don’t think theirs any studies that show isometrics help with rehab I could be wrong though
have you seen our shoulder prehab program? you will enjoy this
I've had damage to the patella cartilage some while ago. I think my patella is fine enough now. Problem is, my quads are getting very weak, especially during the eccentric phase of the knee. So I am thinking this could be quadriceps activation failure. Basically the problem I am facing bow is that the quads do not engage enough which means not enough tension on the patella which causes maltracking issues. Could you do a video on that?
yes we can!
@@ThePrehabGuys That'd be awesome! Thanks for the content you put out there!
hey guys, why add weight and move arm in the same direction as the painful action? wouldnt that only make it hurt even more? thanks
I can move my arm just fine up from the hip all the way up above my head but cannot move my arm behind me
Sounds like a mobility issue
I get numbness down my arm and hands and gets or feels week and tingling..... doesn't hurt like pain. .....
Trevor, we have a great video on numbness in your hands that just released! Check it out! We also have some great videos on posture while at work, dive into those a bit too and look into this blog for me! theprehabguys.com/the-perfect-working-desk-posture/
Great video. How do you sort out possibly impingement? Thank
Lol my spine clicks at C5ish when i lift my right arm in the second range of motion they demonstrate in the video
have you seen our neck and mid back program? clicking in itself is typically not a problem unless there is pain that also presents.
Why is the Asian guy always behind the camera? 😋 Loved the video Prehab Guys 👊🏾
we were all doing work at the clinic while filming.
best acting 10/10
lol, thanks!
