🔸🔹 Is your scapula SICK!? 🔹🔸

Scapular Dyskinesis (SICK scapula syndrome)

Scapular rotation is important for proper shoulder function. The scapula (shoulder blade) also serves as a stable base for rotator cuff activation and functioning. Any bony or soft tissue injury around the shoulder can alter the roles of the scapula in motion or at rest. Scapular dyskinesis (which may also be referred to as SICK scapula syndrome) is an alteration or deviation in the normal resting or active position of the scapula during shoulder movement. For most people, the scapula moves in abnormal ways due to the repetitive use of the shoulder. These changes, though sometimes asymptomatic, can increase the chances of injury.

Common Signs and Symptoms

💪 Pain and or tenderness around the scapula when using the arm overhead or carrying heavy objects with the arm at the side.
💪 Snapping or popping sensation around the scapula with shoulder movement
💪 Loss of strength with shoulder and arm use.
Asymmetrical posture (effected side usually sits lower)
💪 Winging of the scapula
💪 Instability of the shoulder (feels like it moves out of place)

Causes

🔸Muscle weakness or imbalance.
🔸Poor overhead mechanics
🔸Overuse or repetitive motions such as throwing or serving

Expected Outcome

Most abnormalities in the scapular motion or scapular position can be improved through rehabilitation exercises. Your therapist will be able to advise on these.

Possible Complications

🔹Prolonged healing time if not appropriately treated or given adequate time to heal.
🔹Chronic inflammation or impingement of rotator cuff muscles, causing persistent pain with activity that may progress to constant pain (with or without activity)
🔹Shoulder stiffness or loss of motion
🔹Rotator cuff tendon tear(s)
🔹Recurrence of symptoms if activity is resumed too soon, with overuse, or when using poor technique

General Treatment Considerations

Initial treatment consists of medication and ice to relieve the pain, stretching and strengthening exercises, and modification of the activity that initially caused the problem. It may be necessary to take some time off initially after the diagnosis to allow time for the shoulder to rest.
