3 Hidden Causes of Shoulder Pain You’re Ignoring | Chiropractor in Oviedo, FL
Hi guys, Dr. Adriana here with Synergy Oviedo Chiropractic. Are you still treating your shoulder pain like it’s just a shoulder issue? Let me show you three hidden causes you’ve probably never considered.
1. Cervical Spine Misalignment
The first hidden cause is misalignment in your cervical spine. If the nerves in your neck are irritated, they can refer pain down into the shoulder and shoulder blade area. This is often overlooked, but it’s one of the most common root issues behind persistent shoulder discomfort.
2. Poor Posture and Daily Habits
Next is your posture — especially how you sit at your desk, drive your car, or relax at home watching TV. Slouching compresses the upper back and trap muscles, which are directly connected to your shoulder joint. That tension builds up and can result in pain, stiffness, or decreased mobility.
3. Your Sleep Position
And finally, your sleep position could be a culprit. Lying on one side for hours, or sleeping with your arm overhead, creates pressure and strain. This is a common setup for inflammation and shoulder impingement over time.
