The glenohumeral joint is a ball and socket joint, which relies on cartilage to move smoothly and to operate normally. Forms Shoulder arthritis is a clinical condition in which the joint that connects the ball of the arm bone humeral head to the shoulder blade socket glenoid has damaged or worn out cartilage. Normally the ends of the bone are covered with hyaline articular cartilage, a surface so smooth that the friction at the joint is less than that of an ice skate on ice. In arthritis, this cartilage is progressively lost, exposing the bone beneath. Shoulder arthritis is characterized by pain, stiffness, and loss of function and often by a grinding on shoulder motion. http www.orthop.washington.edu roughshoulder One of the three forms of shoulder arthritis is osteoarthritis .
