What Causes ROtator Cuff tendinopathy?
Tendons are the ropes that muscles use to pull a bone
The tendons of the muscles that rotate the shoulder form a cuff around the head of the humerus (the ball of the shoulder joint)--the "rotator cuff"
This cuff of tendons thins and develops a defect or hole over time.
