Shoulder hyperextension injury occurs when the glenohumeral joint is hyperextended past it's normal end-range extension barrier. This action can stress or even tear the anterior joint capsule and surrounding ligaments. In some cases, the rotator cuff tendson may be strained or even torn. Immediate shoulder and arm pain may be experienced that is exacerbated by shoulder movements especially extension and adduction. Unless otherwise contraindicated the injured person should immediately rest the shoulder, apply ice to the injured area every 2-3 hours (for at least 3 days) for 20 minutes at a time, followed by compression (i.e. ace bandage). Consutation with a chiropractor specializing in musculoskeletal disorders, a physical therapist, or orthopedic surgeon is advised if the shoulder injury is interfering with normal activities of daily life.
