Right shoulder soreness may result from various non-specific causes, including structural abnormalities, sports injuries, or other unknown factors. Risk factors for right shoulder pain may include poor lifestyle habits; middle-aged and elderly individuals may experience soreness due to disc disorders or arthritis, while excessive physical activity can also lead to discomfort in the right shoulder. Additionally, right shoulder pain might be caused by neuralgia near the shoulder joint, deltoid tendonitis, scapulitis, bone spurs, or other medical conditions. Therefore, individuals experiencing right shoulder soreness are advised to consult a qualified physician for a thorough examination to determine the exact cause and receive appropriate treatment.
