SURGERYFORSHOULDER?ARETHEREANYCOMPLICATIONS?

Dr Shekhar: It all depends on which procedure is being performed. Like if it is a Rotator Cuff tear, you must wait for a while till the tendon heals to the bone. So in that case you have to restrict movement from 6 to 8 weeks after which you start exercises to gain full movement. Similarly for Bankart repair also you have to restrict the movement for 3 to 4 weeks but the patient is allowed to do his or her normal activities like earring, surfing mobile, walking etc . But rigorous activities are restricted.
