What Sports Injuries Cause Shoulder Pain? 

The most common cause of sports injuries that results in shoulder pain is a shoulder dislocation. This can occur when being tackled, grabbed, or spun around while on the field. It can also occur during practice when running drills. A shoulder dislocation will not heal on its own, and needs immediate medical intervention or you risk permanent injury or disfigurement. Other sports injuries that can cause shoulder pain include: 

  • Joint injuries
  • Rotator cuff injuries
  • Tendonitis
  • Muscle sprains or strains
  • Tears
  • Fractures
  • Arthritis
  • Poorly healed breaks or injuries from the past
