Don’t Let Shoulder Pain End Your Game

Baseball and shoulder injuries affect players at every level, from weekend warriors to seasoned athletes. Whether you’re dealing with a rotator cuff strain, shoulder impingement, or chronic pain that’s keeping you off the field, Dr. McGee at Ortho Las Vegas combines advanced orthobiologic treatments with proven surgical expertise to get you back to the sport you love—without the lengthy downtime you fear.

Understanding Baseball-Related Shoulder Injuries

Common Baseball Shoulder Injuries We Treat

Rotator Cuff Injuries

  • Tears from repetitive throwing motions
  • Shoulder impingement syndrome
  • Chronic rotator cuff tendinitis

Labral Injuries
 

  • SLAP tears (Superior Labrum Anterior to Posterior)
  • Bankart lesions from shoulder dislocations
  • Labral fraying from overuse

Throwing Shoulder Complications

Acute Trauma

  • Shoulder separations (AC joint injuries)
  • Fractures from sliding or collisions

Why Traditional Treatment Often Falls Short

We understand the frustration of trying multiple treatments that don’t deliver lasting results:

  • Cortisone shots provide temporary relief but don’t address underlying damage
  • Standard physical therapy may help but often plateaus without advanced intervention
  • “One-size-fits-all” approaches ignore the unique demands of baseball activities
  • Surgery fears keep you suffering longer than necessary

You deserve more than temporary fixes. You deserve a real path back to the activities you love.
