Shoulder impingement (also referred to as “thrower’s shoulder”) can adversely affect the rest of the arm if left untreated. Clear symptoms of shoulder impingement include discomfort, weakness, numbness, tingling, diminished range of comfortable motion, loss of mobility, and pain that can be localized in the shoulder or extend down the arm.
