Answer 1

10. Diagnostic tests

• Neer's Test

Neer's test is performed by the physiotherapist in which the shoulders will be lifted up and pressure will be applied at the end of the range of motion thereby identifying the result as positive if pain appears then.

• Speed's test

This is done to identify biceps tendonitis by lifting the arms parallel to the floor. Place your palm facing up and resistance should be applied when the arm is pushed down. Pain in the shoulder indicates biceps tendonitis.

• Computed tomography scan

It helps to find out the cause of pain accurately.

• Biopsy of the bursa fluid.

Bursa fluid functions as a cushion connecting bones, tendons and muscles around a joint.

• Electromyography

Electromyography is done to check the shoulder and elbow muscles.
