Had this and labral tear anchored at same time. PT on day two which was light easy stretching. Now 2 weeks post op. PT now 3 days/week, includes manual stretching and range of motion with limits. Dr. Prescribed vacadin as needed (didn't use) 800 mg of prescription aleve 2x day. And baby aspirin for 45 days. Had a nerve block which lasted 24 hours and was great, I did have some numbness that went to side if my face, no big deal. Had a cryo cuff which was phenomenal at night when I'd wake with du
Ive just been told im having this op done in 12 weeks time. It was nice to see what is going to be done and it was great reading the comments that people have written below. I can now get some sort of idea what is going to happen to me. Thanks everyone.
Once i have had my op done i will comment so anyone else having this op done, will benefit from it as i have. Thanks everyone x
i had this done last september and i feel like a new person 95% movement back in arm but it took 6 months of physio and shoulder classes but well worth having it done
it's been two weeks since my operation ... and only pain is some soreness from the procedure. I, like some below, have had almost full range of movement from a few days after the op. Fortunately no need to repair any soft tissue ... hence the rapid and excellent results! Opted for the 'block' as pain relief for 24 hours after (numbs the shoulder in a similar way (but not the same) as having injections for dental work.) Pain killers after ... but pain was less than before ... so manageable!
Had mine done about 2 1/2 years ago. Sore as hell for the first few weeks but pretty much full range of motion within 8 months. Only time I get pain now is in cold wet weather or if I sleep funny on it.
I had mine done last Thursday 27th May 10 and I have had little pain, just a bit of soreness. I can lift my arm almost up to shoulder height. I had the bone spur removed and the surgeon said that my tendons were thin, but still connected, not bad considering I tore both of them a few years back. I guess I have been lucky.
