Understanding Rotator Cuff Injuries

The rotator cuff is essential for shoulder movement and stability. Understanding the causes and types of tears is crucial for proper treatment and recovery.

Rotator Cuff tears are often times caused by the onset of age, while genetics may also play a role. Dr Kruse discusses the question many of his patients ask and why does a rotator cuff really tear.

  • I drove 3 hours to see Dr. Kruse because I did not want to have an MRI, and I was not at all disappointed in my care. His office staff is amazing – very efficient yet caring and compassionate. Dr. Kruse listened intently and took the time to explain the results of my ultrasound so I understood my injury. I felt very confident and assured after my visit with him. I highly recommend Dr. Kruse and his staff.
