Summary

This study looks at whether shoulder problems make balance worse for people who have had a stroke and have weakness on one side. Researchers will compare balance in 100 stroke survivors—some with shoulder pain and some without. The goal is to understand if treating shoulder issues could help improve mobility and daily life.
