Shoulder
At South Texas Spinal Clinic, we are proud to offer expert shoulder care. Our skilled team combines advanced techniques with a patient-centered philosophy to relieve pain and restore function—helping patients return to their normal, active lifestyles.
Know When It’s Time to Get Shoulder Treatment
Shoulder pain can do more than make daily tasks difficult—it can limit mobility, interfere with sleep, and signal a more serious injury or condition. While mild discomfort may improve with rest and simple care, ongoing or worsening symptoms are a sign to see a shoulder doctor or shoulder surgeon.
You should request an appointment with a shoulder doctor if you notice any of these symptoms:
- Pain lasting more than a few weeks without improvement
- Discomfort that worsens with reaching, lifting, or overhead movement
- Stiffness, loss of range of motion, or difficulty raising the arm
- Swelling, bruising, or tenderness around the shoulder joint
- Instability or frequent “popping” or “slipping” of the shoulder
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arm or hand
- Shoulder pain accompanied by fever, redness, or warmth in the joint
You may also need to see a shoulder expert if you believe you have one of the following injuries or conditions:
- Arthritis in the shoulder joint
- Rotator cuff tears
- Shoulder dislocation or instability

Advanced Bone Health
Healthy bones are essential for supporting your shoulders and protecting against fractures—especially as you age. Low bone density can lead to osteoporosis, increasing the risk of painful fractures and other joint complications. Our bone health doctor and providers can assess your bone health, recommend lifestyle changes, and offer treatments to help keep your bones strong for years to come.
