Dr. Robert MossDo you wince every time you reach for something on a high shelf? Struggle to sleep on your side without your shoulder aching? Or feel a sharp pinch just from putting on a jacket? If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and more importantly, you don’t have to live like this. Shoulder pain is incredibly common, but that doesn’t make it any less frustrating. It sneaks into your workouts, interrupts your sleep, and makes everyday movements uncomfortable. Over time, it can even wear on your mood and energy.
