Shoulder Lesions: Consequential Diseases

The following are the most important diseases or complications that may be contributed to by shoulder lesions:

Musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (M00-M99).

  • Chronic limitation of movement
  • Chronic shoulder pain
  • Cervicobrachial syndrome (synonym: shoulder-arm syndrome) – pain in the neck, shoulder girdle, and upper extremities. The cause is often the compression or irritation of spinal nerves (spinal cord nerves) of the cervical spine; most common causes are myofascial complaints (pain in the musculoskeletal system, which do not originate from joints, periosteum, muscle diseases or other neurological diseases), for example, due to myogelosis (muscle hardening) or muscle imbalance of the cervical spine.
