Inadequate scapular posture
Many shoulder pains occur due to changes in the position of the scapula at rest or during movement, that is, the person cannot control this movement in relation to the back. The scapula is responsible for connecting and transmitting energy between the trunk and the scapular waist and originates several muscles.
A simple movement such as extending clothes on the clothesline
or writing and erasing the slate when it is performed improperly with the wrong
scapular posture can cause several types of pain causing some symptoms after
some time.
Examples:
• Pain around the scapula
• Loss of strength of the limb on
the affected side with difficulty raising the arm above the shoulders
• Tingling in the arm
• Crackles in the upper arm
• Compression of neuro-vascular
structures that innervate and irrigate the entire upper limb
• Tendonitis
• Bursites
This is because when raising the arm above the
shoulder line with the scapula in an inadequate posture, the acromion bone
presses on the neuro-vascular structures that innervate and irrigate the entire
upper limb against the humerus bone causing microlesions.
