Hill-Sachs Lesion

This condition is a traumatic fracture of the humeral head that leaves an indentation in the bone. This changes the shape of the humeral head and can interfere with normal arm motion. Doctors at Nucci Medical diagnose the problem by physical examination, x-ray, and MRI. Treatment options include physical therapy and occasionally surgery to stabilize the joint.
