Is It Ok To Continue Exercise With Shoulder Crepitus?
I have shoulder crepitus when I lift with my left shoulder. There is no pain though. Is it appropriate to continue doing exercises that create the crunching and popping noises even when no pain exists? Is it a problem that will necessarily get worse?

Hi,
The problem in the shoulder is generally pain and stiffness. If you have crepitus alone without pain, then continue all activities until the pain of stiffness becomes apparent. Crepitus alone - if not disturbing can be left alone.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
