Laboratory Tests for Shoulder Pain

What Is a Laboratory Test?

Laboratory tests include a range of blood and urine tests. Blood work may include testing for genetics (inherited disorders) or to determine the amount of oxygen in the blood. Urine tests may be performed to check blood, chemicals, bacteria, and cells for infection or other abnormalities.
