Treatment of shoulder-scapular periarthosis in the sanatorium Staraya Russa

Treatment of shoulder-scapular periarthosis, first of all, is associated with the elimination of the cause of its occurrence. The direct therapy of the disease takes place mainly by medication. Anti-inflammatory and painkillers are prescribed. Injections into the periarticular area are also effective. Prevention of the disease is physical therapy. It also helps to cope with some of the consequences of shoulder-scapular periarthosis. Sometimes spa treatment is prescribed to combat the disease.

Staying in a sanatorium allows you to correctly diagnose the disease and immediately prescribe treatment. In addition to drug therapy, sanatorium conditions provide an opportunity for the patient to be at rest so as not to injure the shoulder joint even more. After passing the acute period, special exercises of physical therapy are prescribed. Physiotherapy procedures are also effective.

Treatment results

The disease is perfectly treatable in sanatorium conditions. Doctors relieve inflammation and the shoulder joint regains freedom of movement.

Consequences of lack of treatment

The lack of treatment contributes to the spread of inflammation to the elbow and wrist joints. Muscles are replaced by connective tissue and this process is irreversible.
