Untreated, it can lead to chronic pain.Findings: Two patients with trauma to the shoulder followed by severe chronic pain were diagnosed with traumatic enthesopathy and responded well to appropriate therapy.Conclusions: Diagnosis of traumatic enthesopathy is made by analysis of the mechanism of injury and by palpation of the involved area. Treatment of enthesopathy with sclerosing therapy is rapidly effective.
