Shoulder pain in lateral raise can be caused by shoulder joint injury, frozen shoulder, cervical spondylosis and so on. 1. Shoulder joint injury: if the patient has a history of trauma, it will cause tendon tear and contusion in the acromion area, resulting in the restriction and influence of the joint function, which will cause shoulder pain in lateral raise. 2. Frozen shoulder: when the patient suffers from frozen shoulder, the soft tissue around the shoulder joint is damaged due to various reasons, causing aseptic inflammation and adhesion of the tissues around the joint capsule, which limits the activities of the shoulder joint and leads to the phenomenon of shoulder pain in lateral raise. 3. Cervical spondylosis: If you suffer from cervical spondylosis, it will easily lead to cervical spine degeneration or hyperplasia and calcification, resulting in changes in the vertebral body, which will lead to compression of the surrounding tissues and pain. If the curvature changes, it will also lead to localized compression, involving the shoulder, and the symptoms of shoulder pain in lateral raise. Patients with lateral lateral raise shoulder pain should go to the hospital in time, clarify the cause of the disease and then actively treat it under the guidance of the doctor.
