Treatment of acromioclavicular impingement syndrome

The treatment methods for acromion impingement syndrome are mainly non-surgical treatment and surgical treatment, as follows: a. Non-surgical treatment: Early acromion impingement syndrome can still be treated non-surgically, such as the need for early application of triangular scarf suspension for braking, injection of corticosteroids and lidocaine in the acromion gap, and the need for oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs to promote the decreasing edema and relieve pain symptoms. At the same time, local physiotherapy such as acupuncture, electrocautery, cupping, etc. should be used to effectively treat shoulder impingement syndrome by changing labor posture and operating habits. Second, surgery: For patients with very serious impingement syndrome, it is necessary to actively undergo surgery, which usually requires rotator cuff reconstruction and acromioplasty, with strict local protective braking after surgery.
