Rotator Cuff
Injuries: A Bane of
Baseball Pitchers
and Older Adults
Special to the Ledger
Baseball pitchers aren’t
the only ones at risk for
rotator cuff injuries of the
shoulder. According to the
November issue of Mayo
Clinic Health Letter, adults
older than age 60 experi
ence more rotator cuff
injuries than any other age
group.
The rotator cuff is made
up of four muscles and
tendons that run between
the bones of the upper arm
and shoulder blade. They
facilitate shoulder move
ment and help support
the ball and socket joint
connecting the upper arm
and shoulder. Injury to the
rotator cuff includes any
type of irritation or dam
age to these muscles and
tendons.
Pain is the most common
symptom of a rotator cuff
problem. But the amount
of pain doesn’t necessarily
indicate the seriousness
of the injury. A significant
rotator cuff tear sometimes
causes little pain. A minor
irritation can cause pain
that substantially interferes
with daily life.
Strains or tears can oc
cur while using an arm
to break a fall. Repetitive
motions, even painting a
wall, may be enough to
irritate the rotator cuff.
Other common culprits
are playing tennis or golf.
Working in construction
trades or lifting heavy
objects can injure the rota
tor cuff. Muscle and tendon
degeneration, increasingly
common after age 40, also
can play a role. Bone spurs,
poor posture and muscle
strength imbalance can
cause pain in the rotator
cuff, too.
Minor pain often im
proves with self-care, such
as rest, ice on the shoulder
and taking over-the-coun-
