Where Does
It Hurt?
Explore the body to learn more about common injuries, pain presentations and musculoskeletal conditions.
Select a body region. Start with the conditions we see more commonly, then explore less common presentations and learn what a physiotherapy assessment may involve.
Start With Where It Hurts.
Select one of the highlighted areas on the body. You'll see common presentations first, followed by less common conditions, what we assess and how rehabilitation may help.
Shoulder
Assessment Before Assumption.
Pain location alone does not tell us exactly what is injured. We combine your history, clinical testing, movement, strength and functional demands to determine the most appropriate rehabilitation plan.
The Apex Injury Map provides general educational information and is not intended to diagnose an injury or medical condition. Pain in the same area can arise from different structures and causes. A clinical assessment is recommended for an individual diagnosis and treatment plan. Seek appropriate urgent medical attention after severe trauma or if you develop serious or rapidly worsening neurological, breathing, systemic, bladder or bowel symptoms.
