Some issues Dr. Daniel K. Ostlie, MD can help you with:

Shoulder Arthritis

Shoulder arthritis is a very common condition that causes pain, stiffness, or a grinding sensation in the shoulder. Some patients may hear a clicking or popping noise, and all symptoms are more noticeable when moving. Arthritis occurs when the cartilage that cushions joints becomes damaged.

Normally, when two bones come together inside a joint, they are separated by a layer of tough, smooth cartilage. The cartilage allows the bones to glide across each other, which makes movement easier. Cartilage can be damaged by an injury, by an illness such as rheumatoid arthritis, or by simple wear and tear (osteoarthritis). In the shoulder, the two joints most commonly affected are the AC joint (where the shoulder blade and collarbone connect at the outside edge of the shoulder), and the glenohumeral joint (where the arm bone meets the shoulder blade).

Treatment for shoulder arthritis may include:

Ice and rest
Exercise and physical therapy
Over-the-counter pain medications
Corticosteroid injections
Surgery

Surgical treatments include the removal of inflamed tissue and joint reconstruction. The type of arthritis and severity of the damage will determine which treatment is most appropriate.

Patient verified via Press Ganey

I didn't really care for how the doctor treated me. He treated me like I was stupid and he didn't even show any care or concerned or even listened to me. His comment he made to me was very rude and unprofessional. I tried to explain to him my work day and that I was raised to be independent, and his comment to me was oh yes I can definitely see that. I mean, why would you say that to a patient. What is that even supposed to mean? And it was the way that he said it to me. It was very unpleasing and unprofessional and it really upset me. He needs to learn how to talk to people and listen and if he doesn't care he shouldn't be a doctor..

Overall Rating: 4.0 2024-11-22

Patient verified via Press Ganey

At first he seemed to like walk in as if he were late, or in hurry, stopped me several times in talking because he needed to read my reasons for coming in. Which I think should be read before he walks into the door. I'm just a very honest person.
