Frozen, torn, or just worn: Navigating shoulder complaints in ageing patients

From tendinosis to major tears, and from frozen shoulder to bad arthritis, this talk will cover the more common conditions that are seen in the shoulder as we age.

How to assess, when to image, what can be done in primary care, and when it is important to refer.

This will be an interactive and informative session aimed at giving confidence in understanding and diagnosing problems in the aging shoulder.  

Not all shoulder pain needs to be seen by a surgeon, and many patients can be successfully managed in primary care. Given the wait times to see a specialist, your patients will thank you for it.
