Abstract

The article focuses on Shoulder Impingement Syndrome (SIS), a prevalent condition characterized by the compression of soft tissues between the humeral head and the acromion process. Topics include the biomechanical causes of SIS such as rotator cuff weakness, scapular upward rotation musculature weakness, and clavicular dysfunction, which all contribute to impingement and potential damage to shoulder structures.
