Shoulder Pain and Impingement Treatment in Bursa

The shoulder has the widest range of motion in the body, and the price of that freedom is that its stability depends on the muscles around it. "Shoulder pain" is not one diagnosis but a heading that can cover impingement, rotator cuff overload, frozen shoulder or a problem referred from the neck. Fzt. Kemran Hafız starts by making that distinction in Bursa Nilüfer — because the programme for impingement and the programme for frozen shoulder pull in opposite directions.

Shoulder Pain in Bursa Nilüfer

Fzt. Kemran Hafız provides one-to-one care for shoulder pain at the clinic in Bursa Nilüfer — in Fethiye Mahallesi, on Kelebek Sokak, at a central point of Nilüfer, opposite the Fethiye covered market.

It is a short trip by car or public transport from İhsaniye, Odunluk, Balat, Özlüce, Ataevler, 23 Nisan and the surrounding areas. Every session is one-to-one, assessment-based and tailored to you.

Post-stroke shoulder pain is a distinct condition

Shoulder pain is common in people who've had a stroke, and the cause is usually not orthopaedic: when arm-muscle control weakens, the joint can slip downward under its own weight, and changes in muscle tone restrict movement. Classic shoulder exercises aren't applied directly in this condition.

Fzt. Kemran Hafız assesses the shoulder's position, tone and sensory findings together; daily handling of the arm — from how it's carried to bed positioning — is arranged accordingly. The goal isn't limited to reducing pain — the shoulder is protected for the function the arm will regain.

What does the assessment cover?

Is the goal only reducing pain?

No; the goal isn't limited to reducing pain — the shoulder is protected for the function the arm will regain. That's why positioning and daily handling sit at the centre of the programme.

Frequently asked questions

Are post-stroke shoulder exercises the same as normal shoulder exercises?

No; classic shoulder exercises aren't applied directly. The programme is built specifically around tone, position and sensory findings.

How is shoulder subluxation prevented?

Correct positioning and adjustments to daily handling can limit the slipping from progressing; this is an early part of the assessment.

How is the family involved in this process?

Bed positioning and how the arm is carried are shown to the family and made part of daily care.
