People frequently damage the supraspinatous while working above their heads- painting, construction, etc. This injury produces pain that goes from the top of the shoulder through the bicep and produces a pinch when lifting the arm. Western medicine generally treats this problem with surgery. Sometimes surgery is necessary but acupuncture can also eliminate this pain in many cases. It is always worth while to try acupuncture before having your shoulder operated on for this injury.
