Non-Surgical Treatments for Rotator Cuff Tears
Rotator cuff tears do not heal well with time. They tend to either enlarge or, at best, stabilize in size. The good news is that rotator cuff tears do not necessarily need to heal in order for the symptoms to resolve.

Dupuytren's Contracture Facts and Statistics: What You Need to Know
Dupuytren's contracture is a disorder that affects the hand. This condition begins with nodules that form in the palm, which can grow into thick cords of tissue. As these cords continue to grow, fingers can be pulled into a bent position, causing a contracture—meaning they are stuck in that position and cannot be straightened out
Causes of Pain Between the Shoulder Blades
Pain between the shoulder blades is often due to muscle strain, which may result from lifting heavy objects, poor posture, or overuse. Other health issues can cause upper back pain, though, including acid reflux, disc problems, gall bladder disorders, or even a heart attack. Different disorders will cause different types of pain.
Tests for AC Joint Separation
The acromioclavicular (AC) joint is the superior (upper) portion of the shoulder joint, comprised of the distal (furthest from the center of the body) portion of the collar bone (clavicle) and the acromion process of your shoulder blade (scapula). Problems here can lead to loss of shoulder motion, pain, and difficulty performing tasks that require the use of your arm.
