The a/c joint is where the collarbone (clavicle) meets the shoulder blade (scapula). Many people have the ability to self-diagnose the injury with signs and symptoms including swelling, pain, and inability to move the joint. During this treatment, the doctor replaces a broken shoulder joint with fabricated parts that reverse the structure of the shoulder.

Shoulder discomfort can be the outcome of swelling and wear and tear to the ligament as a result of aging, injury, and overuse. This treatment is usually utilized for patients that have had a complete tear of the rotator cuff, particularly when those whose injuries have actually brought about an arthritic problem called cuff tear arthropathy.

Atraumatic shoulder instability is a problem when the shoulder begins to slip component escape of the shoulder joint without having a significant injury. A SLAP tear is an injury to the ring of cartilage surrounding the outlet of the shoulder joint (the labrum).

A typical shoulder injury, a clavicle fracture is a break of the bone that relaxes in between the shoulder blade and the breast bone, normally called the collarbone.
