My mother has been having severe pain in her shoulder and the doctors say they can’t figure out what it is (of coarse), so how would she know if it is a torn tendon?

It could be bursitis or tendinitis.
I also have pain in my left shoulder and the doctor thinks it’s bursitis.
Can she move her arm some. Lift it over her head? If it’s painful she probably has an inflamation of the bursa (bursitis). She needs to rest her arm. Maybe see aphysical therapist/ chiropractor.
Good luck as my arm has been hurting for months now.
Torn tendon usually happens after a injury or accident. If there isn’t any cause that’s probably why the doctors don’t know what it is… But they still should be able to help, ultra sound, pain pills, steroids etc.
i just had surgery for it when she lifts her arm it will hurt real bad, when you move you arm in most directions it will hurt
