According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons,
about 4 million people in the United States seek medical care each year
for shoulder sprain, strain, dislocation, or other problems. Each year,
shoulder problems account for about 1.5 million visits to orthopaedic
surgeons--doctors who treat disorders of the bones, muscles, and related
structures. (Source: excerpt from
The medical term 'prevalence' of Shoulder conditions usually refers to the estimated population
of people who are managing Shoulder conditions at any given time,
whereas the annual diagnosis rate of new cases of Shoulder conditions is called the 'incidence'.
For more information on prevalence and incidence statistics, see about prevalence and incidence statistics.
