I had the surgery 16 days ago. in the recovery room I was screaming in agony. after getting morphene the pain went. since then the maximum pain has been 3/10 . and only occasionally . I started physio 2 days ago. got good movement . frustrating having to wear the support 24/7 but it was expected. going to be a long slow recovery again expected. had the big cuff, smaller cuff , bone ground down and balloon. was worse than expected. operation mr khan, London independent hospital. all the staff there were amazing.

What if it is a "complex" superior labral tear and I'm 34. I was told my bicep tendon is fine and my rotator cuff is mildly frayed. I also have great range of motion, but I can still tell something isn't right although my trainer and PT have said they don't believe I need surgery. The yhing is I power lift, Olympic lift and do martial arts. So in terms of longevity I am trying to figure out if I should get surgery or just stick with conservative treatment
@shoulderarmhealth 3 ай бұрын
When you hear “complex tear” it is usually not a good thing. That usually means there is a disorganized tear pattern seen on the mri. The only repairable type is a type 2 tear which is a clean and “simple” tear. However, it is hard to advise you just based on the information you gave me. Ultimately, you have to decide if this nagging pain is bad enough to warrant the down time and recovery period needed with surgery. Your surgeon can help you make this decision. If it comes to surgery, the repair vs tenodesis decision is often a decision that has to be made when the camera is in the joint. Good luck. Please share what you end up doing.

Dr. Sohn, Political views aside, it is my hope, and may I respectfully suggest that medical professionals such as yourself look into and shed light on "SIRVA" and brachial neuritis. I've been suffering for 8-9 months, and had no idea why my shoulders would be bothering me this bad. It wasn't until about three weeks ago when I remembered receiving the TDaP vaccine early Feb 2023. In addition, seems as though our government is already aware of this- hence, the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. I can't begin to fathom how many others haven't connected the dots yet. I hope this helps others. Trust me when I say, the pain is real. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, and best of luck.

If you MUST use a brace, a wrist extension brace would be more helpful. It will support your wrist and reduce the tension in the wrist extensor tendons. Better treatments for tennis elbow include active release therapy or a PRP injection. My main concern with the brace is that it. A cause radial tunnel syndrome. That is a nerve problem that is often harder to treat than the original problem.

When it comes to stabilization surgery is the capsular shift like about 50 percent joint volume reduction/tightening versus the capsular plication like 30%? Does the plication only focus on the capsule near the labrum while the shift is more global?
@shoulderarmhealth 4 ай бұрын
Great question. in theory, you can do as much volume reduction arthroscopically as you can with an open capsular shift. In reality, we usually do not aim for as much capsule volume reduction when we do this arthroscopically since we are usually trying to simply restore the damaged anatomy. arthroscopic Plication in people with multidirectional instability is usually done circumferentially (front and back). In contrast, open capsule shift is done from the front and mainly reduces the volume in the front of the shoulder. When done correctly, the lower leaflet of the open capsule shift will pull the posterior and inferior tissue upward, tightening it indirectly.
@GoodByeSkyHarborLive 4 ай бұрын
So does the hydrodilation rupture the capsule just like the capsular release surgery would to gain ROM? And is the capsular release surgery basically a cut in the front and back of the capsule but the rotator interval area is where they cut the most out like a whole chunk of the ligament or that is also equivalent of just a cut?
@shoulderarmhealth 4 ай бұрын
thanks for the question. when I do hydrodilation, I do NOT rupture the capsule. It is simply a fluid bolus and an air bubble which allows more effective magnification of the patient's stretches. When we do the surgery, it is a cut in the capsule circumferentially as well as removing a portion of the rotator interval and any adhesions in the subacromial space.

Hello. While I’m not able to offer medical advice on this channel, it does sound like you may have some abrasive rubbing coming from the knots (if they indeed used knots). Lately, most companies have gone to a completely knot less technology so as to avoid that situation. I’m some cases, the noises may dissipate as the body covers the knots with scar tissue. If there is pain, you may need to consider a surgery to remove the knots after the slap has healed. If they are going back to look at the knots, they will also see if the slap healed (and to consider bicep tenodesis if needed).

@shoulderarmhealth 6 ай бұрын
Hi biglionnnn. This channel is for general information. It’s hard to give you specific advice based on your question. However, a humorus fracture is a much more acute and important problem to heal from before addressing any problems with the labrum. It takes about six weeks for the bone to heal and then after that, it probably takes another month or two to get your flexibility back. It’s too soon to make any decisions about surgery unless the fracture itself requires surgery. I recommend seeing a shoulders doctor near you to monitor healing.

Thank you for this thorough explanation. I'm a 70 year old male diagnosed two months ago with a massive RC tear. My doctor at Beth Israel in Boston said it appears quite old with both my supra and infraspinatus muscles extremely retracted according to the MRI. Yet I didn't even know I had this injury until after installing a hood above my stove two months ago which, apparently was the straw that broke the camel's back. My doctor told me this balloon insert is not a total fix and that I would eventually need a reverse shoulder replacement. My question is, and I hope it's general enough to warrant an answer here: after the balloon dissolves and when/if the humeral head migrates upward again, why can't the procedure be done a second time so as to avoid the reverse shoulder replacement? Also, I am holding off on the balloon, or any surgery, due to the length of the recovery period and financial constraints. I have a mortgage to pay among other things. I can still work as a massage therapist without any obvious problems so that's what I'm doing saving money for the rainy day that's coming. But if I hold off too long and get arthritis in the joint, would I still be a candidate for this balloon surgery? These are questions I neglected to ask my doctor and he's not someone I can just pick up the phone and call for a quick response. I have other concerns too, such as If I fall into the percentage of patients who don't do well with this balloon procedure and end up worse off, needing a replacement which has a much longer recovery period. Sorry to lay this much on you! I would surely appreciate your input. Of course, I will eventually speak with my doctor. Thanks again.
@shoulderarmhealth 6 ай бұрын
Hi jpd464. Great questions. So yes, it’s usually a gradual weakening of the tendon, which eventually gives out. There is usually some sort of memorable injury that finishes off the tendon, but the tear was likely growing in size for quite some time. I always use the analogy that if the rotator cuff has been torn for a long time, the humeral head starts to migrate so far upwards that it starts to escape from the socket. it’s as if you drove your front wheels of your car off of the edge of a cliff. You don’t have enough traction to get yourself back onto solid ground. If you were to just get a tow truck to pull you and get your wheels back on solid ground, you could keep them there. The balloon acts like the tow truck, which gets the humeral head to center itself again in the socket. Even after the balloon disappears, the humerus should be able to maintain itself inside of the socket. I don’t think there is any reason why it couldn’t be repeated. However, this device hasn’t been out long enough to have any reports of that being done. as far as waiting too long and your concerns about arthritis, that is valid. However, arthritis forms slowly and the type of arthritis that happens with chronic rotator cuff. Tears is more of an asymmetric socket wear that is often relieved by placing the balloon spacer. One final point is that a reverse shoulder replacement is a bigger surgery, but the recovery is actually quite fast.

I was fortunate enough to be referred to Dr. Sohn for my frozen shoulder, and I am extremely grateful to him for his expertise, compassion, and care. I diligently followed his prescription of physical therapy and injection, but, although this works for most, it just didn't stop the rapid decline of my very painful 67-year-old shoulder. In November 2022, I couldn't even raise my fork to my mouth for Thanksgiving because of the pain. Dr. Sohn recommended manipulation under anesthesia, and that procedure completely restored my quality of life. Within a very short time, I could easily raise my arm and move it to my back and stretch it out to the side. Before this manipulation, he very carefully and clearly explained the procedure and discussed the risks. I felt completely comfortable in his care and remain so grateful to him that, upon seeing this video, I felt compelled to thank him again by way of this 'comment.'

Isn't the point of it to replicate the subacromial space so it can be used for no subacromial bursa but intact rotator cuff. so why does it need to be used for irreperable Supraspinatus tear? If the bursa is not present then the humeral head would ride up too correct? If balloon implanted and when it dissolves it leaves scar tissue but is that's scar tissue basically the subacromial bursa?
@shoulderarmhealth 8 ай бұрын
If I understand your question, I would say that this is NOT just meant to replicate the subacromial bursa. The bursa is a very small filmy tissue which normally takes up very little space. The balloon is meant to fill the space normally occupied by the rotator cuff tendon. If the tendon is intact, there is no room for the balloon. So, it’s only meant to be used to open up the collapsed space with irreparable rotator cuff tears.

Hi. When the capsule is weak or attenuated, we have a few other options. In general, we can stabilize the shoulder using a dynamic tendon transfer called the DAS (dynamic anterior stabilization) or the trusty Latarjet procedure where we transfer bone and tendon to reinforce the area. We can also use dermal allograft to reconstruct the weak tissue.
