What is a Rotator Cuff Injury
The shoulder joint is indeed a ball and socket joint, but it differs from the hip joint in terms of the size and stability of the ball and socket. The ball in the shoulder joint, which is the rounded head of the upper arm bone (humerus), is larger than the socket, which is part of the shoulder blade (scapula). This anatomical arrangement allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.
