If you'd rather be a pain in the neck than have a pain in the neck, why not let our orthopedic physicians and surgeons at Englewood Hospital and Medical Center shoulder the burden of your pain and distress and diagnose your problem.

Chances are if you have pain in your neck, hand, or elbow, your own shoulder may even be the cause because the primary function of the shoulder is to support, or anchor, the different positions of the arm and hand. 

Since we use our hands to do so many things, they often are subject to work-related injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome or repetitive stress syndrome, and traumatic injury. Hands are also often affected by the normal wear and tear on the joints that results in arthritis. And what's so comical about our funny bone being out of joint? Ouch!

Unfortunately, these and other conditions can compromise the way you are able to use your upper extremities and lead to disability.
