Uneven shoulders refer to a condition where one shoulder appears higher or lower than the other, disrupting the symmetry of the upper body. This condition is defined by an asymmetrical alignment of the shoulders, which can affect posture and may be noticeable during both standing and sitting. The causes of uneven shoulders are diverse. One common cause is poor posture, where habits such as slouching or carrying heavy bags unevenly can lead to muscle imbalances and shoulder asymmetry. Structural issues such as scoliosis, a curvature of the spine, can also contribute to uneven shoulders, as the spine's curvature affects shoulder alignment. Other potential causes include muscular imbalances, where one side of the upper body is stronger or more developed than the other, leading to uneven shoulder positioning. Additionally, injuries or conditions affecting the shoulder joints or bones, such as a rotator cuff injury or a clavicle fracture, may result in asymmetry. Treatment for uneven shoulders depends on the underlying cause. For postural imbalances, physical therapy is often effective, involving exercises to strengthen weak muscles, stretch tight ones, and improve overall posture. If structural issues like scoliosis are present, treatment may include bracing or, in more severe cases, surgical intervention. For muscular imbalances, targeted strength training and stretching exercises can help restore symmetry. Addressing any underlying injuries or conditions with appropriate medical care is also essential. Consulting with a healthcare professional, such as a physical therapist or orthopedic specialist, is important for an accurate diagnosis and a tailored treatment plan to correct shoulder asymmetry and improve overall posture.
