Clinical-Medical Image

A 59-year-old female presented to the rheumatology clinic with right shoulder pain for the past two weeks. No trauma or fall history. Three weeks prior to her symptoms she had mild COVID-19 infection required home quarantine. Musculoskeletal examination of the right shoulder revealed tenderness along the joint line, a restriction in the arm’s range of motion, positive Hawkins and jobe tests. Right shoulder X-ray shows osteoarthritic changes (Figure 1A), Ultrasound findings demonstrates subacromial subdeltoid (SASD) bursitis (Figure 1B). Results from the bursa fluid rule out infection and crystals. After a corticosteroid injection, the patient’s condition improved, and she was referred to physiotherapy [1].
