Anatomy and Function of Shoulder Joints
  • The shoulder is the most mobile and at the same
    time most unstable joint in the human body.
  • Owing to its complex structure it offers the
    highest range of motion over another joint.
  • And this also makes it highly vulnerable to
    injury in sports or even in daily life.
  • At our joints and sports clinic in Mumbai, we
    often get consulted by patients with shoulder
    strains and injuries.
  • This most often happens due to a lack of right
    information about the joint and the care that
    must be taken for a healthy shoulder.

    shoulder surgeon in Mumbai 
  • Dr Chirag Patel we shed light on the function and
    anatomy of the shoulder joint to improve your
    awareness. Read on
  • The Function of Shoulder Joint 
  • From mobility activities like walking, throwing,
    and running to daily activities like reaching an
    item on the shelf there isnt any upper body
    functional movement where the shoulder doesnt

    the shoulder bones in place to enable movement of
    the arms upward, downward, forward and
    backwards.

Anatomy and Function of Shoulder Joints
  • Anatomy of Shoulder Joint 
  •  
  • The shoulder is a ball and socket joint that is
    primarily formed by three bones humerus (upper
    arm bone), scapula (shoulder blade) and clavicle
    (collar bone).
  • The head of the humerus bone forms a ball-type
    structure that is lined with cartilage and sits
    in the socket, called the glenoid cavity with
    support from muscles, tendons and ligaments.
  • Thus enabling the shoulder joint to perform
    extension, flexion, abduction, adduction,
    internal rotation, external rotation and
    circumduction.
  • This support system of muscles, tendons and
    ligaments are collectively called rotator cuff
    and they ensure free movement of the joint by
    keeping the ball and socket in place, says
    the best orthopaedic surgeon in Mumbai Dr Chirag
    Patel.
