Description

Illustrations showing elements of a shoulder assessment. Also included on a shoulder assessment would be determination of acromioclavicular joint tenderness, supraspinatus/greater tuberosity tenderness, biceps tendon tenderness (using Speed's test), atrophy and crepitus. (In Speed's test, the arm is fully extended anteriorly, palm facing up. The examiner pushes down on the hand as the patient resists. Pain in the anterior shoulder is a positive test for biceps tendinitis.)
