Effective Homeopathic Medicines for Rotator Cuff Injury

The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles and tendons that keep the head of the humerus (bone in the upper arm) in the shoulder socket. Rotator cuff helps stabilize the shoulder joint. The muscles in the rotator cuff help with the movement at the shoulder joint in various directions. Damage to any of the muscle or tendons of the rotator cuff is known as a rotator cuff injury. Rotator cuff injuries (both acute and chronic) can be effectively treated with homeopathy.

rotator cuff homeopathic medicine

Homeopathic medicines for rotator cuff injury. 

Ruta Graveolens, Arnica Montana, Rhus Tox, Bryonia Alba, Ferrum Met, and Sanguinaria Can are the top homeopathic remedies used to treat rotator cuff injury.

The four muscles that make up the rotator are known as supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis. The most injuries related to this area include strains, tears (can be partial or full thickness tear and may arise from acute injury or overuse), tendinitis (stemming from overuse), bursitis (inflammation of the bursa), and impingement (trapping of the rotator cuff tendons between head of humerus and acromion; it can result in inflammation of tendon or bursa of shoulder).

Arnica Montana is a well indicated homeopathic medicine for rotator cuff injury when intense soreness and tenderness in the shoulder is present. The shoulder is bruised, and there is a sense of weariness in the arm. This medicine works well to treat an injury to the rotator cuff from a fall or a blunt instrument as well as acute or chronic cases of a rotator cuff injury.

Rhus Tox – Effective Homeopathic Medicine for Rotator Cuff Injury from Overuse

Rhus Tox is a natural treatment for rotator cuff injury arising from overuse. A tearing kind of a pain, a burning sensation in the shoulder are the most prominent symptoms. Sometimes the arm feels lame. Stiffness in the shoulder along with restricted movement is another key symptom.

Rest offers relief in the pain. Heavy pressure or a stitching pain on the shoulder is also present. Touching the shoulder tends to worsen the symptoms.

Sanguinaria Can – Natural Homeopathic Medicine for Right-sided Shoulder Pain

The pain from shoulder radiates down the upper arm in some cases. The pain gets worse by putting the arm behind the back. Movement of arm worsens the pain. Heat tends to relieve the shoulder pain.

Causes of Rotator Cuff Injury

The primary cause for rotator cuff injury is the overuse of the rotator cuff. Sportspersons including tennis players, baseball players, and wrestlers who tend to use the rotator cuff excessively are at an increased risk of injury. A blow on the shoulder, fall on the ground, or an accident (such as on the road) also increases the risk of a rotator cuff injury. Older adults above the age of 40 years are also at increased risk.

Symptoms of a Rotator Cuff Injury

In case of rotator cuff injury, the symptoms like shoulder pain and decreased range of motion at the shoulder joint are prominent. Tenderness on the affected shoulder joint is also present. Pain may get worse by putting the arm over the head or behind the back. In most cases, worsening of the shoulder pain is noted at night time. Lying on the affected side also tends to exacerbate the pain. A clicking sound on moving the shoulder and weakening of the shoulder are some other symptoms.

    Dr Sharma, I am a 67 yr old female. This is right sided. First noted tingling, numbness in right arm. Months later I did a lot of heavy lifting. Pain began in right shoulder. I had fallen several times but noticed no problem from falls. Pain became excruciating. Could not bear to lie on this shoulder or arm. Pain sometimes extends to wrist or to neck. Deep pain as when you have an abscessed tooth. Rest and heat help the pain. Pain worse from twisting motion. Stretching arm is tolerable. Panic from the pain.

  12. I have pain in shoulder since 2 years. Last year my shoulder MRI showed that I have rotator cuff tear.
    At that time doctor suggested for me to take steroid injection but it did not. is Homeopathy medicine cure my problem. Please give me suggetion.

  13. Kathy Hathaway says:

    An MRI shows that I have a COMPLETE tear of my rotator cuff. It’s an accident, not overuse. Can homeopathy heal a complete tear? I don’t know if I should just opt for surgery because I don’t want to be disappointed that I can’t do my active things like kayaking and tennis after just using homeopathy! How can I wisely decide which way to go? Thanks much!

    • Kathy Hathaway says:

      Update: I used homeopathy plus physical therapy to heal my tear. I used homeopathy to heal the various parts of the shoulder that were damaged from my fall. Because it was a complete tear, it would never bring the parts of the rotator cuff back together but my other tendons/muscles/joints healed and became stronger with PT in order to take over the work of the no longer intact rotator cuff. Because I am older (70) I must do my PT exercises every day to stretch and maintain the strength that I gained in the physical therapy. The only thing have trouble with is playing pickleball, which requires fast, explosive shoulder movement.

      • Kathy, How long did your healing take? Did you do a combination water remedy for homeopathic treatment? If so, which remedies do you feel worked best? I have an injury from a skiing fall and hope to heal with PT and homeopathy as well. I wish you complete healing!

    Hi sir
    50 days before I have fell down from vehicle and got pain in left hand shoulder. MRI test revealed that complete tear in supraspinatus and near complete tear in infraspinatus. Getting pain only when lifting. Able to sleep on left shoulder without any pain. Orthopedist has advised to orthoscopy surgery.

    Owing to my physical condition I’m fearing to go for surgery. Is there remedy in homeopathy for my problem. Please suggest.
