What Causes Limited Motion in the Arm or Shoulder?

Arm and shoulder limitations often result from direct injuries or repetitive strain during military service. In many cases, these conditions worsen over time when left untreated. Common causes include:

  • Shoulder dislocations or rotator cuff tears
  • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
  • Arm, shoulder, or elbow fractures
  • Tendon or ligament damage
  • Arthritis or chronic joint inflammation
  • Nerve compression or impingement

Even if the injury initially seemed minor, long-term limitation of motion can significantly interfere with daily activities and may qualify for VA disability compensation.

Establishing a Service Connection for Arm & Shoulder Injuries

To receive VA disability benefits, you must show that your arm or shoulder condition is connected to your military service. Survivor Sources Inc. helps veterans build strong claims by:

  • Gathering service records that document physical duties, injuries, or strain
  • Coordinating medical evaluations and range-of-motion testing
  • Developing timelines that link current symptoms to service events
  • Supporting claims involving secondary conditions or bilateral impairments

Whether your injury resulted from physical training, combat-related trauma, or repetitive motion, our team helps ensure your claim clearly reflects your service-related limitations.
