Our study showed that higher subjective disability, limited active external rotation, poor tendon quality, larger tear size, and U-shaped tears were more associated with a partial repair. However, ...
External rotation is an exercise that helps to strengthen the rotator cuff, a group of four muscles and their tendons. It is one of several effective movements for this area that, over time, can ...
