More About Shoulder Surgery

Orthopedic shoulder specialists treat all types of shoulder injuries and conditions that may be caused by Arthritis, Bursitis (inflammation around the joint), or Tendonitis (inflammation of the tendons).

Investigations like Blood tests, X-rays, Bone scan, Computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan, Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Positron emission tomography (PET) or PET-CT scan, Biopsy are required.

The typical symptom is the pain in the shoulder that becomes worse with movement and pain, swelling, or bleeding around the joint.

It is advised to wear a bra that has a front closure.

You may use your wrist, hand, and elbow for daily activities which includes eating, shaving, dressing, as long as you do not move your operated arm away from your body and it does not increase your pain. Do not use your arm to push up the bed or chair for six weeks after your surgery.
