Procedures We Offer For Shoulder Pain Treatment in Houston, TX

Our treatment procedures vary in intensity, depending on the severity of your condition. For mild pain, our orthopedist may prescribe medications and advise self-care tips to improve shoulder joint functioning. If you experience severe or persistent pain, we will create a personalized treatment plan.

Physiotherapy involves the use of different exercises and therapeutic techniques that can help relieve shoulder pain and improve the movement of your joints. These exercises can strengthen your shoulder joints and surrounding muscles, offering long-term benefits.

This is Iva Phillips. Very helpful visit today. Will be starting Therapy. Dr. Cusick took time to explain my problem and ways to try to prevent surgery.

Gilmer Phillips

Dr Cusick and his aide were very helpful with their assessment of my problem. They gave me alternative solutions to consider and showed me X-rays of my shoulder. I was surprised that we got in after a short wait. They took several X-rays and counseled with me in a very efficient manner. I was in and out in much less time than I had anticipated!

Jack Roland

AMAZING! Dr Cusick listened to me talk about my symptoms and pain. He talked to me rather than just look at my images. Later, he explained the images to me and together we agreed on a plan Of Action. 10/10

Thank you for a pleasant experience! The front office staff as well as the medical staff made me feel like family. They answered all my questions and I didn't feel rushed. The wait time was also less than 5 minutes of my scheduled appointment.

Robert Peeler

If this surgery is a little frightening, I understand. I interviewed doctors until I was satisfied that the one I chose was right for me. The pain and restriction of movement in my left shoulder was debilitating. Dr. Michael Cusick is totally committed to his trade. Complete total reverse shoulder replacement.

Kyle Powell

Don't get me wrong there was hiccups and waiting to have surgery seemed like forever but Dr. Cusick, his office staff and the hospital staff especially has been amazing. They went above and beyond to get my surgery approved so we wouldn't have to put it off longer. Dr. Cusick keeps a positive outlook even at times...

When should I see a doctor for shoulder pain?

It is a good idea to be evaluated if your pain lasts more than a week or two, is severe, follows an injury, or comes with swelling, weakness, or limited range of motion.

Will I need surgery to treat my shoulder pain?

Not usually. Most shoulder pain improves with conservative care such as physical therapy, activity modification, anti-inflammatory medication, or steroid injections. Surgery is considered only when these options don’t provide lasting relief.

What are the most common causes of shoulder pain?

Frequent causes include rotator cuff problems, arthritis, impingement, bursitis, tendinitis, injury, and repetitive overuse.
