 Hi, I am C.R. Usha. I would like to narrate an incident which happened during December 2021. One day when I happened to sit on the floor very casually with the support of my right hand, it stretched to an unexpected length. And suddenly within few seconds I experienced an unbearable shooting pain in the shoulder of my right hand. And the pain reduced when I took rest. It increased on the moment of my hand. I approached Dr. Ayapan Veenayur of Manipal hospitals. As per his advice, various medical tests were done. And it was diagnosed as muscle tear shoulder dislocation. And thereby a surgery became inevitable. Hi, I am Dr. Ayapan Veenayur. I am a shoulder surgeon at Manipal Hospital's Highfield. It's with a lot of pleasure, gratitude, prayerfulness. And it's very, very hard for me to talk about my patient, Mrs. Usha, who is the mother-in-law of my close friend and cardiologist Dr. Sandesh. So he had bought Mrs. Usha, Usha Aunty I would call, to my OPD one day with pain and stiffness in the shoulder, inability to move the shoulder. The clinical examination, when I checked the shoulder, I felt that there could be a possible muscle tear. And the MRI did definitely show a muscle tear, a massive muscle tear in the rotator cuffs of the shoulder, which falls in the category of something called as irreparable tear, where we can't do a primary repair or suturing of the muscle can't be done. So then the only option was to do a shoulder replacement, technically called as a reverse shoulder arthroplasty, a reverse shoulder replacement. I am 66 years old, obviously the fear of surgery, its consequences and whether I am physically fit enough to take up this surgery, etc. Such doubts were lingering in mind, but doctor's comfortable approach, neat explanation, very clear convincing words made me mentally prepared to go ahead with this operation. So she underwent a surgery and the surgery went well. She did very well post-surgery, her recovery was good and I am very glad that she had an excellent patient like her. She was so dedicated and cooperative and today I would say at the end of the complete recovery process, she has achieved her full function with full power to the shoulder. I am extremely thankful to God that we were able to do all this and we were able to achieve the full function for her. Operation went on very nicely from day one to this day, no any complication, no discomfort and in fact not even a slight pain bothered me subsequent to the surgery. He coordinated with an excellent physiotherapist which further improved my speedy recovery. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Ayyappan B. Nair who has performed a splendid work, who has restored my shoulder, my hand back to me. I pray God to give him a very happy, long and healthy life so that more and more patients shall be benefited by his treatment. Thank you.
