Shoulder Injuries
Sternoclavicular Joint Sprain
• Mechanism
– Force applied to lateral aspect of shoulder
(travels medially through clavicle)
– Force applied anterior or posterior to shoulder
– Stretching of SC ligament from direct or
indirect force to joint
– Rare-traction force (i.e. uneven bars)
• Signs and symptoms
–
–
–
–
–
Point tenderness over SC joint
Pain with active/passive stretch
Loss of function
Pain with protraction/retraction
Dislocations tend to occur anterior or superior
• Although posterior can occur and is a medical
emergency
