Condition
Calcific Tendinitis of the Shoulder
A one-page care plan for patients with Calcific Tendinitis of the Shoulder, covering Purpose, Prevention & Protection, Education & Expectations, Nutrition, Next Steps & Numbers, Consistency, Indications and Lifestyle & Long-Term Success.
In this plan
Purpose, Prevention & Protection
- I know calcium can collect in the rotator cuff tendons that help lift and turn my arm.
- I understand the cause is not fully known, and deposits can occur without an injury.
- I know some deposits cause no pain, so my exam and symptoms matter along with the scan.
- I reduce painful loading while keeping gentle shoulder movement to limit stiffness.
