Rotator Cuff Tear

Rotator cuff tears are most commonly caused by injuries (e.g., lifting heavy objects) or by the gradual wear and tear of the tendons, which is also known as degeneration.

Common symptoms of rotator cuff tears include a limited range of motion when raising the arm, pain when rotating or lifting the arm, and clicking sensations or sounds that occur when moving the arm.
