Q1: When should I consider a shoulder MRI?
A shoulder MRI is recommended if you have:
-
Persistent pain despite physiotherapy or medications
-
Limited range of motion or difficulty lifting your arm
-
Suspected rotator cuff, ligament, or cartilage injury
-
Pain affecting sports, work, or daily activities
MRI detects soft tissue injuries, labral tears, and ligament damage that X-rays, CT, or ultrasound may miss.
