Overview

abstract

  • Successful nonoperative treatment of shoulder injuries in the throwing athlete requires a team approach. The physician, physical therapist, and athletic trainer work together with the athlete to determine a diagnosis and design a treatment protocol. Injury recovery requires restoration of muscle strength and balance followed by a careful return to a throwing program.
