Abstract

In recent years, the priority of conservative methods in the treatment of rotator cuff tendinopathy has increased. In the first stage, the aim is to control pain and reduce inflammation. For this purpose, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and/or corticosteroid injections can be used. In addition, physical therapy and rehabilitation programmes may also be effective in reducing pain, increasing muscle strength and improving range of motion.
However, surgical intervention should be considered in cases where symptoms persist or progress despite conservative treatment. Surgical treatment of rotator cuff tendinopathy may vary depending on the type of lesion, age of the patient, activity level and other factors. Surgical options include subacromial decompression, techniques to promote tumour growth and regeneration, laser therapy and collagen matrix implantation.
In conclusion, current approaches to the treatment of rotator cuff tendinopathy focus on alleviating patients' symptoms, restoring functionality and reducing the need for surgical intervention. Conservative treatment options can increase the chances of success when used in combination with pain control and physical therapy. Surgical options should be considered in more advanced cases, but should be applied depending on patient characteristics and severity of the lesion
