Español Many athletes experience occasional soreness, but if shoulder pain lingers for more than a few days, worsens with activity, or limits your ability to train or compete, it may indicate something more serious. Warning signs that require evaluation include swelling, weakness, numbness, instability, or an inability to move the shoulder normally.
Ignoring these symptoms may allow a small problem to progress into a more severe injury. Conditions like rotator cuff tears or labral damage can worsen without early care, leading to longer recovery times and possible surgical intervention. By addressing issues promptly, athletes often avoid unnecessary downtime and preserve shoulder function.
If your shoulder is preventing you from performing at your best, don’t wait for the pain to become chronic. Reach out to Badia Hand to Shoulder Center to schedule an evaluation and take the first step toward safe recovery and performance restoration.
