Are shoulder injuries due solely to improper stroke mechanics

Are shoulder injuries caused solely by improper stroke mechanics? Can we avoid all pain using perfect technique? Can we throw away the ice pack forever? Or can shoulder pain be caused by other factors as well? Vote if you have an opinion.

    I believe I've posted several times that I do exactly that, which indicates I have not minimized the importance of anatomical factors. I have several times stipulated that it's a contributory factor. How many times must I do that? Apparently we agree that anatomical factors are important contributors to the development of swimmer's shoulder/shoulder impingement. Sorry for the misunderstanding.:hug:
