The shoulder is a ball and socket joint which is stabilized by the rotator cuff. The rotator cuff is formed by the tendons of the following muscles: supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis. Damage to the rotator cuff muscles can cause pain and reduced range of motion in the shoulder.
