Moderate acromioclavicular joint arthropathy refers to a degenerative condition affecting the acromioclavicular (AC) joint, which is located at the top of the shoulder where the clavicle meets the acromion of the scapula. "Moderate" indicates a certain level of joint deterioration, which may involve cartilage wear, bone spurs, or inflammation, potentially leading to shoulder pain and reduced mobility. This condition can result from wear and tear over time, injury, or repetitive stress on the joint. Treatment options may include physical therapy, medications, or, in severe cases, surgery.
