Triceps Brachii
Function
Abducts the arm
Abducts the arm, some
external rotation of
shoulder; stabilizes the
head of the humerus.
Externally rotates the
shoulder; stabilizes the
head of the humerus.
Externally rotates the
shoulder; stabilizes the
head of the humerus.
Internally rotates the
shoulder; stabilizes the
head of the humerus.
Flexes the elbow
Extends the elbow

Clavicle Fracture
Glenohumeral dislocation
Lateral Epicondylitis
Medial Epicondylitis
Interphalengeal Dislocation
Common Injuries
Clavicle Fracture
Mechanism
of Injury
1. Fall on
outstretched
arm.
2. Fall on tip of
shoulder.
3. Direct
impact
Signs and
Symptoms
Pain, deformity,
swelling.
Treatment
Immobilize
shoulder. Refer to
physician.
Prevention
Strategies
Don' t fall.
Common Injuries
Impingement Syndrome
Mechanism of
Injury
Mechanical
compression of
the
supraspinatus
tendon,
subacromial
bursa, and long
head of biceps
tendon.
Signs and Symptoms
Pain around
acromion with
overhead arm
position. Weak
external rotators.
Positive empty can
and impingement
tests.
Treatment
Restore normal
biomechanics.
Strengthen
shoulder complex
muscles, stretch
posterior joint
capsule, modify
activity until
asymptomatic.
Prevention
Strategies
Decrease
overhead
activity,
shoulder
complex
strengthening,
improve
technique
Common Injuries
Rotator Cuff Strain
Mechanism
of Injury
Mechanical
compression of
the
supraspinatus
tendon,
subacromial
bursa, and long
head of biceps
tendon.
Signs and
Symptoms
Pain around
acromion with
overhead arm
position. Weak
external rotators.

and impingement
tests.
Treatment

Prevention
Strategies

complex
strengthening,

technique
Common Injuries
Glenohumeral Dislocation
Mechanism
of Injury
Forced
abduction,
external
rotation of
shoulder.
Signs and
Symptoms
Flattened deltoid
contour, pain,
disability.
Treatment
Splint in position
found, immediate
transport to
physician.
Prevention
Strategies
Shoulder
complex
strengthening.
Common Injuries
AC joint separation
Mechanism
of Injury
Signs and
Symptoms
Treatment
1. Falling on an
outstretched
arm.
2. Direct impact
to the tip of the
shoulder.
Grade I:point tender,
painful ROM, no
deformity.
Grade II: elevation of
the end of the
clavicle, decreased
ROM.
Grade III: dislocation
of the clavicle,
severe pain, loss of
ROM.
Ice, immobilization
of the shoulder,
refer to physician.
Return to play at
return of full
strength and ROM.
Prevention
Strategies
Proper fitting
pads
Strengthening
of deltoid
muscle.
AC Joint Separations
Common Injuries
Lateral epicondylitis – “Tennis Elbow”
Mechanism of
Injury
Repetitive
extension of the
wrist.
Signs and Symptoms
Aching pain in lateral
elbow during and after
activity.
Treatment
RICE, antiinflammatory
medications,
strengthening
exercises.
Prevention
Strategies
Proper technique,
progressive
increase in
frequency/intensity
of training.
Common Injuries
Medial epicondylitis – “Little Leaguer’s or Golfer’s Elbow”
Mechanism of
Injury
Signs and Symptoms
Repetitive flexion
of the wrist.
Pain in medial elbow,
could radiate down arm;
point tenderness, mild
swelling.
Treatment
RICE, antiinflammatory
medications,
strengthening
exercises
Prevention
Strategies
Proper technique,
progressive
increase in
frequency/intensity
of training.
Common Injuries
Interphalengeal Dislocation
Mechanism of
Injury
Blow to the tip of
the finger.
Signs and Symptoms
Pain, deformity, no
ROM.
Treatment
Splint in position
found, immediate
referral to a physician.
