Typically, with shoulder impingement, conservative treatment is handled first, which means strengthening, mobilizing and using corrective exercises to treat the problem.
If the problem is more chronic or more severe, other tools such as an MRI or ultrasound imaging can help rule out complete tears or more severe conditions.
