Abstract
A comprehensive subjective and objective physical examination was performed. Right shoulder active range of motion was significant for poor quality of shoulder flexion which deviated into scaption and an inability to actively abduct past 80 degrees. Passive range of motion was full, but the patient experienced his worst pain with end range internal rotation and mild posterior shoulder pain at end range adduction. Manual muscle testing was significant for 4-/5 weakness of right shoulder external rotation as well as weakness and pain with the empty can test. Palpation was performed for shoulder structures along with provocative tests, but the patient was not point tender to the acromioclavicular joint.
