Physiotherapy Exercises following a Proximal Hummus Fracture

[@maxinejacobson4006]

Excellent presentation and advice. Eight weeks after my shoulder fracture, I’m almost back to full mobility. I can even fasten my bra! I still have more to do, but at 80 years old, I’m delighted with my progress.

[@pamelag.00]

I’m impressed! Almost 8 weeks now & I wouldn’t say I’m that far although feeling good. I’m more than 10 years younger than you.

[@pamelag.00]

@@michelegoodwin1370 it gets better! It’s actually motivated me to to work on my overall fitness again. I’m feeling pretty good. I can even sleep on that arm & shoulder now. 8 months out now.

@@pamelag.00 Thanks Pamels I have been so depressed the last few weeks with this. But you sound amazing so when I am feeling down I will think of you 🙂

[@pragawa]

Wonderful! Very happy for you. My sling should come off in two weeks. Physiotherapy after that.

[@planetvideo777]

I can't thank you enough for my road to recovery. I've used your video so many times; and i am nearing 90-100 close to full recovery. Thank you so much !

[@mspfinney]

I broke my proximal humerus about 7 years ago. It broke in a cross pattern. My physical therapist called me his golden patient as I eventually got back 95% of mobility back. Every once in awhile I need to do some therapy on my shoulder to loosen the muscles. This video has greatly helped me remember the exercises I did so long ago. Thank you so much.

[@chainstriike1741]

Shout out to all of us with broken shoulders

[@AngelaMay66]

I read that our suffering is worth $50,000 American. I broke mine twice. Problem is nobody is paying.

[@lizabeneventi]

Bruh I got hit by a car and shattered my proximal humerus 😭 I’m not alone

[@chainstriike1741]

Sorry to hear that I’m almost 100 percent range of motion no surgery just keep doing the shoulder exercises when you can good luck

[@Sachin-gv7ik]

Lmao man, suffering from a proximal humerus fracture after a big fall, been 3.5 weeks. No pain, hands in a sling, but pretty useless.

[@HumbertoSqualavarez42069]

Motorcycle crash. Plate installed in humerus. Sucks.

[@sharron-dannycanning1751]

Thank you so much for this video! Eight weeks after my accident and this is more information in a few minutes than I have had from all of my hospital visits. I will play this every day and exercise along with you x

[@jhillwine]

74 Years old, and have been with Michelle twice a day for 5 weeks. Excellent video, and finally realized why I have a craving for Pita bread: Proximal Hummus (sic) Fracture

[@drkatel]

Thank you! Week 4.4 and doing better than I expected. Boy, I really didn't appreciate how badly these hurt the first few weeks. I'm so glad the crunching and grinding is done. I'm used to "gross" but there was something extra gross about my own bone ends moving and grinding. Lol

[@ChefGuy49]

AMAZING! I cannot praise you enough! You demonstrated and explained things neither my surgeon, his assistant nor my own physical therapist bothered to share. You dramatically improved my mobility with this video. Thank you so very much!

[@kmonnia]

This is great. I’m one week post surgery and had my 1st physical therapy appointment today. All of these exercises are what I was shown. Great to have this resource to refer back to. Thank you! ❤️‍🩹

[@sallygirl43]

This is outstanding. I'm 3 weeks post staple removal (37 of them) and wish I saw this as soon as I left the doctor's office. He said I wasn't ready for PT until the bone healed a bit, but I could have been doing 90% of these exercises. I watched it now because he said I was now ready. Thank you SO much for your excellent video.

[@planetvideo777]

You beat me by 7 Staples 😄. I also had to wait an extra month for therapy to heal a crack at the top of the Humerus.

[@CarolynTurner-v6e]

This has been so helpful for me. I have been using your excellent video as an adjunct to my physical therapy, the past several weeks. Thank you for your great demonstrations of the exercises! This is a wonderful video for folks recovering from proximal humerus fracture. You do an excellent job. Thank you also for the detailed instructions and extra information and tips and support and encouragement you provide. short video and you demonstrate all these important exercises so well, and with excellent additional information and instruction. I don't know your name but you are so helpful, and informative. Makes a great deal of difference in my outcome. You have a very nice presentation demeanor as well. Much Appreciation to you Ma'am. This is very high quality information and demonstration of these important exercises to help us regain function. Thank you so much! Kind regards, Carolyn T. USA

[@annwoodward2011]

I’ve been in constant pain from humorous and wrist fracture for 19weeks, pain just starting to ease, Physiotherapy is helping a lot. Still can’t put hand behind back or above my head but I’ll not give up. Wish this advice had been availability earlier it would of prepared and assured me to what to expect.

[@garuda4361]

You should've started wayyy earlier. Im now week 2 after surgery and started physical therapy already.

[@mikepatton9445]

This was very informative. I wish my surgeon would have informed me to keep moving. I was about 6 weeks immobile in my sling after my surgery. No physical therapy sucks trying to get my motion and strength back!

[@devjon123]

Thank you so much for this. After taking a tumble at parkrun resulted in an impacted proximal fracture to the Humerus I'm just over a week post incident. This is so much more easy to follow than interpreting a not very well printed exercise pamphlet.

[@angelviannedewolfe7612]

I wish I had found this sooner. Really smashed my shoulder mid August 2019. Had physio till Dec 19. Then it stopped as I was told I needed surgery. Then 2 lockdowns happened. Have had no treatment since dec 19. Wasn't given any exercises to do. If id found this I would probably be able to move my arm outwards. I'm going to start these today and see if I can get more mobility back. Great video. Thank you ❤

[@leelavilasini]

How has it been ? Are you better? Regaining moment ? I had similar situation... hoping to regain back the movement.

[@oakleywindowcleaning]

Thankyou so much. I fell off a roof 5 weeks ago and had my shoulder reconstruction 2 weeks ago. This has given me great confidence in the healing process. Thankyou so much, great presentation and plenty of exercises to start to go at! Thankyou again, it’s hard sometimes wondering how debilitating your injury might be but this has helped.

[@gewojack2]

EXCELLENT!!! Exactly what I've been looking for

[@george170]

Great video. Unable to get to physio clinic so it is great to have some exercises to do at home.

I have a proximal humerus facture for last 5 weeks. Nobody up to now have told me to stop ibuprofen. The paracetamol haven't really made any difference. Thanks for exercise advice

[@martin4819]

I’ve been shown most these or similar exercises in the two weeks of PT I’ve gone but there are some u showed that are easier to do at home. Also found that doing PT in a pool had been great! The cold water keeps the inflammation/pain down and the buoyancy allows u to do these motions without the help of your good arm. Plus it’s nice to get out of the house! :)

Amazing and helpful. Very patient friendly , excellent communication and explanation. Very simple and practical too. God bless you !!
