What Is Glenohumeral Arthritis?
Glenohumeral arthritis occurs when the smooth cartilage lining the main shoulder joint wears away over time. As this protective cushioning degrades, bone rubs directly against bone within the joint. This progressive condition leads to severe inflammation, persistent stiffness, and chronic shoulder pain that restricts your daily physical activities.
Understanding Shoulder Arthritis Symptoms
Glenohumeral joint disease often begins with subtle, activity-related discomfort. Common shoulder arthritis symptoms include:
Deep, aching joint pain
Progressive shoulder stiffness
Grinding sensations during movement
Our Approach to Care
Glenohumeral Arthritis Non Surgical Treatment
Before considering surgery, our medical specialists explore conservative approaches to alleviate your discomfort. Glenohumeral arthritis non surgical treatment options include targeted physical therapy, activity modification, anti-inflammatory medications, and strategic corticosteroid injections. These proven methods effectively reduce inflammation and restore mobility. Reach out to our offices to discuss your personalized treatment plan.
Advanced Total Shoulder Replacement (TSA)
When conservative measures no longer provide sufficient relief, a total shoulder replacement (TSA) becomes a highly effective solution. This surgical procedure involves replacing the damaged cartilage and bone with durable prosthetic components. Our experienced orthopedic surgeons utilize advanced techniques to ensure optimal joint stability, significantly reducing pain and restoring daily shoulder function.
Restore Your Shoulder Mobility with Expert Central Texas Orthopedics
When conservative measures no longer provide relief, total shoulder replacement (TSA) offers an effective surgical solution. Replacing damaged joint surfaces with precision prosthetic components restores stability and eliminates chronic discomfort.
