Shoulder Replacement

Shoulder Replacementshoulder replacement?

just had a -1 / 2 replacing my physiotherapist swore that I was wrong to hurt me, something pops up the other day at PT and now I need a new procedure, I do not think Can I take an "It will be from 3 to 4 years, they are painful and recovery is not trustworthy, I do not / can not return to the world of pain I was living.

Popping over the range of motion is not uncommon ... it may be because of scar tissue or a gas bubble to burst, etc. How do you know you need a new surgery? Has this been confirmed by the surgeon? If yes, what in particular he / she say? Dislocation would certainly imply that either the shoulder was not stable or that rehabilitation would have been too aggressive.

I saw some people must go for revision shoulder ... usually it's someone who had a hemiarthroplasty (like you) who should have suffered a total shoulder arthroplasty in the first place ... In these cases, it is not the fault of rehabilitation ... it is simply a procedure that has been badly chosen.

However, I would get a copy of your rehabilitation and whether the doctor's orders were followed ... Otherwise, I would seek legal counsel, if that is your intention. I worked with a therapist who was seeing someone after TSA once and she held the patient in an unusual position (more unusual because it already received this year for PT and OT have had to work on other things) and the patient's dislocated shoulder. The patient sought legal action against the EO.

Among the three major joint replacements (hip, knee, shoulder) ... the shoulder is more difficult to recover and many people never recover overhead function ... But pain is often relieved of the procedure.

Best wishes to you.
