Do nerve issues occur in shoulder pain syndrome?
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at whether nerve-related symptoms are common in people with subacromial pain syndrome (a type of shoulder pain). You may qualify if you have shoulder pain that has lasted at least 3 months, with moderate to severe pain in the past week, and if you haven't had shoulder surgery or certain other shoulder problems.
