Shoulder pain can severely limit your daily activities and athletic performance. At Keith Schmidt, MD in Hoffman Estates, IL, we offer comprehensive diagnostic and interventional treatments for shoulder pain, including intra-articular injections, suprascapular nerve blocks, and regenerative therapies to restore function and eliminate pain.
Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can result from rotator cuff injuries, impingement syndrome, frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis), arthritis, bursitis, labral tears, and nerve compression. As a swimmer and triathlete, Dr. Schmidt has personal experience with shoulder demands and understands the unique challenges faced by active patients dealing with shoulder dysfunction.
Our Treatment Approach
We offer multiple interventional options including corticosteroid injections directly into the shoulder joint or bursa, suprascapular nerve blocks for chronic shoulder pain, PRP therapy for rotator cuff injuries, and hyaluronic acid injections for shoulder arthritis. Each treatment is performed under ultrasound guidance for maximum precision and effectiveness.
