Impingement Syndrome
Impingement Syndrome Treatment at Dr. Vijaykumar D Orthopaedics
Advanced Shoulder Care for Pain Relief and Restored Mobility
Impingement Syndrome, also called subacromial impingement, occurs when the tendons of the rotator cuff are compressed between the bones of the shoulder joint. This leads to pain, inflammation, and difficulty lifting the arm, especially during overhead movements. If untreated, the condition may progress to rotator cuff tears or chronic shoulder dysfunction.
At the clinic of Dr. Vijaykumar D – Best Orthopaedic Surgeon in Bangalore and Former Additional Professor of Orthopaedics, AIIMS, Delhi, we provide advanced treatment for shoulder impingement using a combination of minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery, guided injections, and structured rehabilitation to ensure long-term relief and restored shoulder function.
Causes & Risk Factors of Impingement Syndrome
Repetitive overhead activities (sports, work-related)
Rotator cuff weakness or imbalance
Shoulder instability or previous injuries
Bone spurs narrowing the subacromial space
Poor posture and muscular imbalance
Age-related degeneration of shoulder tissues
Treatment Options for Impingement Syndrome
Medications & Injections – Anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroid injections to reduce swelling and pain.
Physiotherapy – Strengthening and mobility exercises to restore rotator cuff balance.
Activity Modification – Guidance to avoid repetitive overhead strain.
Arthroscopic Subacromial Decompression – Minimally invasive surgery to remove bone spurs and widen joint space.
Rotator Cuff Repair – Performed if tendon tears are associated with impingement.
