Abstract

We present here, report of a 26-year-old washer man who presented with pain in left shoulder and difficulty washing clothes. Clinical evaluation and electrodiagnostic studies confirmed injury to the left Suprascapular Nerve at the Spinoglenoid Notch. The patient was managed conservatively for six weeks with relative rest, supervised physiotherapy and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, following which he showed substantial reduction in pain and improvement in functional activities.
