Shoulder Anatomy
Your shoulders are the most flexible joint in your entire body. Instead of moving on one plane, they are capable of 360-degree circumduction, rotation, flexion, adduction and abduction, allowing you to reach forward, behind, above and below. Because of this broad range of movement, the shoulder is naturally the most insecure joint in the body. An extensive network of muscles, tendons and ligaments helps to support it.
An injury or condition that affects your shoulder can quickly lead to a loss of movement, joint instability and pain. At Fondren Orthopedic Group, our specialists are prepared to find a solution that gets you back to your life with less pain and more movement. We bring years of specialized experience to the Houston community, ensuring treatment is accessible to all who need it.
