I had this surgery and here I am not even a year later with the same problems plus neck pain that I didnt have before the surgery. I am all healed up but my scar has sunk in....im not sure if thats nirmal or not
This is nonsense, better don't use this stupid lnstrument, and a simple ligation would have been enough to ligate the lnferior Thyroid. Misuse of the harmonic, use it only for lap surgery. Dr. Kerala.
I’m 4 days post op and I honestly can the pain is worse than giving birth with no meds but I’ve been told as it heals the pain will subside and start feeling more like soreness after a crazy workout! We shall see and good luck to anyone who has this surgery coming in the near future.
@@danielborne4988 I’m now 8 weeks post op and the pain is only noticeable when I’m in physical therapy and heat therapy after helps subside it! I’m learning to move my arm again however I’ve been told it could take up to 12 months before I’m back where I should be! My tear was massive I have 4 anchors and 5 screws so I got a ways to go but I’m more positive these days than I was when I first got the surgery! Thank you for asking that’s very kind of you ☺️
Nope, the more I see and the more after stories I hear on RU-vid the more I think it's barbaric and the stories I've heard the symptoms start over again . I'm scared to have this surgery
I cannot afford or trust any doctors or hospitals, In my city, to perform this surgery on me. So I just watch it and imagine, the surgery being done properly. Wishful thinking!
I had this my left rotator cuff repaired 2 months ago and my right one 3 days ago. I started physical therapy 1 week after and it's going well. The first 4 days were painful but it reduced as the days went by.
Wow you’re courageous enough to do them 2 months apart? Wow. I’m 7 weeks from 3 years and bicep tenodesis. So painful yet my other shoulder just as painful. Doc won’t even talk about second shoulder yet
@@denisern55 It's important to let it heal well and be able to do some of the basic things before you do the second one. I managed to do some physical therapy and training on the shoulders before surgery to keep some muscle.
I had this surgery and fully recovered from it, but most of the pain I had prior to the surgery was in the lower scapula area. The surgery didn't seem to address it at all. For me, the surgery felt kind of pointless. Still have the same pain and new pain that was never there before. So my suggestion would be to avoid it unless absolutely necessary.
My left shoulder was a mess. I had an ATV accident on Easter Sunday 2024. I tore all the tendons except the teres minor on the back of the shoulder. I had surgery on 4/23/2024 and I'm two weeks out from that. I knew I had to get it fixed quickly because the moment I tried to get up from the accident I could not use my arm at all. It was like a wet noodle. I have2 more weeks in the sling and I'm counting the days because of the lack of sleep with it on at night. My body also likes to sleep on it's left side so I have been averaging 3-4 hours of sleep a night. I hope that everyone that goes thru this finds peace with the pain you will endure and the knowledge that your arm is needed to do so many things we take for granted. Peace be with you and a speedy recovery from this surgery
My wife suffered a left mid-humeral fracture from a fall while in recovery from a complete shoulder replacement performed at Texas Orthopedic Hosp. We returned to TOH and they removed all implanted appliances and the top 2/3 of her humerus. Her shoulder and her arm were debrided, and we were sent home with 4 weeks of IV antibiotic infusions. Shortly afterward, the end of her humerus pushed out through the incision. and got reinfected. Back to TOH for another debridement, but before surgery, her colon ruptured and she was rushed to Houston Methodist for an emergency ostomy. Four weeks later we went back to TOH and they debrided her again (including a series of events that almost led to security ejecting me from the hospital). She then had 6 more weeks of infusions then 4 weeks of wound care which has not been successful. The surgeon at TOH is now considering this procedure and is referring us to a specialist's specialist. My wife is very tired of all of this.
This looks pretty involved and uncomfortable. I have an 8mm full-thickness tear on my right supraspinatus and a separation of the bicep tendon. I am thinking of doing a PRP injection instead of surgery which takes 6-12 months for full recovery. Hope it is the right option!🤞
1 components ( torn labrum, biceps tendon ( named tendonosis), torn muscle, distle clavicle bone) 2 steps ( debridement, release and Anchor scrow ( named tenodesis), suture scrows, bone shaver for joint and distal) Thanks
Roland here, going to do left shoulder on 2-13-24. Watching many u tube videos and rehab vids. Learning as much as I can so might make easier recovery. Thanks.
I hope you are doing well. My left repair was 8 years ago and the right last January (I was 60). Please keep up with your PT. It will hurt, but skipping it creates problems. God be with you.
I’m having surgery done on Tuesday. I have had many abdominal surgery that is no biggie. This however is different because its my dominant arm. I know its gonna be painful and I’m gonna get thru it. I have to keep telling myself the pain is temporary and then I will be better. I have to tell myself this because surgery pain is temporary non-surgical pain will get progressively worse. Having said that, I still am a bit freaked out lol
@@SaintsWife924 so sorry Im just seeing this. I had a SLAP done and bicep repair. It’s been 4 months and have finished pt. I can say that my should is about 90% recovered. HOWEVER, something else came to light in the recovery process. I had some pain that would just not go away and then the left side began to hurt and weaken as well. Thankfully the YT algorithm was eavesdropping and pulled up a video that described exactly what I had been feeling. I have rediculopathy (nerve pain, going into my arms) in my neck. I had an MRI done and confirmed 2 bulging discs. I have an appt on Thursday and Im praying that some injections will work. I tried going into this with a positive attitude and can say it’s been hard. I didn’t expect the depression BUT that a being said if I didn’t have the other issue the shoulder surgery went well and just building strength. I hope you are doing well.

@@NosyRoseE I'm glad it was successful, but I'm sorry to hear about the other issues that came up. I'm worried about having surgery. I'm hoping I can figure something out before surgery date, a month away. I also have bursitis which doesn't help matters. Ice helps me. Thank you for your reply.
I just had this procedure a few days ago after slipping on ice and fracturing my tibia/fibula. Reading the comments here about how many people recovered well is making me feel better.
Hello😊, Fell a few weeks ago, stopped diving into my motorcycle engine reaching out with my left arm to grab a workbench. Saw my doctor yesterday (I kept telling my wife I’m okay) after his review and prognosis he said and I quote “you can’t be operated on you are too old, I’ll be 75 in a few months. Damn Respectfully Bill
I think I know the exact way for you to get rid of your shoulder pain, it's not my technique, it was created and researched by a board certified orthopedic surgeon, I just discovered it and it got rid of 85% of my shoulder pain. I'm 62. My shoulder issues: Partial tear of left rotator cuff, left glenoid labrum and left biceps tendon at the shoulder. My symptoms: Significant pain that prevented sleep, range of motion cut in half, if not more. Went to the orthopedist Kaiser Permanente scheduled, they wanted me to do PT before considering surgery. The PT didn't seem to do anything, and I even tried exercises I found on RU-vid from others, no relief. I was watching every RU-vid video I could find when I stumbled upon the technique which worked, and it's simple. 95% of shoulder issues and damage is caused by impingement of the acromion and the shortening of a tendon attached to it, which occurs over time as we age. As primates, we evolved to use our arms to hang and do work in that position, when we don't do enough of it, the gap between the acromion and the humerus narrows and impinges upon the soft tissues of the shoulder structure. By dead hanging, arms as vertical as possible, palms facing forward (this hand position keeps the soft tissue back and away from the joint) the humerus will push against the acromion bend it back out to create space and stretch out the shortened tendon. In my case, less than a week of dead hanging 20 seconds at a time for 10 times a day, range of motion was much better, and the constant pain greatly reduced. Within a month, range of motion was 90% restored and pain only happened when arm was moved in certain ways or if I slept on it in a way that aggravated it. The tears will not heal, that would require surgery, but since the impingement has been resolved, the injuries aren't being aggravated, so they aren't likely to get worse. The book is "Shoulder Pain? The Solution & Prevention" by John M Kirsch M D board certified orthopedic surgeon. I bought a paperback copy on Amazon for less than $15. It's not a polished, professionally put together book, but it does show all of his research, including CAT scans, X-rays and even autopsy pics, he spent 10 years on it. If they won't do surgery, that probably means you have partial tears like me, so Dr. Kirsch's method will probably get you back up to speed and in a matter of days and avoid surgery, weeks of immobilization followed by months of PT. I do my own PT, I lift weights and have added to my workout splits specific exercises that strengthen muscles that offset those that were damaged.
@@yorkiepityes, and studies are finding that surgery of this type is widely varied in its ability to alleviate pain. Dead hanging is key. I have some kind of Supraspinatus problem for decades. Exercise over the last year and a half made my shoulder so much better. Woke up this morning with acute pain from impingement. Hopefully just bursitis. But you are on to something, dead hanging and sensible exercise. I feel this time rehabilitation will be quicker
My mother couldn't raise her arms higher than her shoulders. She suffered in pain for the last few years of her life since the doctors also told her she was too old (78) for the procedure 😢. The good thing was that we (siblings) took good care of her and helped her as much as possible around the house taking turns staying with her 😊.
Blew out my right shoulder at work June 5, 2024. Family Dr told me I needed surgery to fix it after viewing my MRI. WCB Dr told me I'm too old at 51 and am not a good candidate for surgery. Surgeon told me you're not too old, you're active and healthy and that he could fix it and give me full range of motion back. In 2 days, it gets fixed.
