Did the first one a couple years ago and went to the point couldn't lift arm or open a car door. Was unsure but after a year it's a world of difference. Last December heard a pop lifting boxes just about went to my knees but got going again fought the pain but finally went to doc. As per usual they stuck me in therapy it did straightened out the pulled muscle in the back and neck but shoulder was still bad. Did all the exercises finally they did m.r.i it showed full tear off the bone . It seems to me if something is tore working it ain't going to make it grow together. Know a person that his shoulder didn't get better his range of motion is bad and his strength is poor even has a hard time getting his coat on.
They said options are therapy but again it's not going to go together. Next was cortisone that will take away the pain and the problem with that is you won't feel pain and might push harder and do more damage to something else.
Next option is do nothing and other muscles will take over your range of motion will be limited and naturally if you don't have full use you won't have full strength.
And last surgery and the last one took a year to recover.
Right now can't sleep extremely painful on all of the arm and a lot of weakness. The doctor said if I want to stay working I got to do it.
There is other things the found on the m.r.i degenerative bone disease bone spurs (they ground them off last time) bicep tear (they cut and screwed it back on last time) and the full split . the last time it was partial this time it's a full split and inch apart so the longer I wait the harder it will be to get together.
Not looking forward to sleeping in the recliner nor the therapy nor 4 months not working but I know it's the best option for me.
Each one is different don't be afraid to ask questions and look up things on line. For me the m.r.i tunnel wasn't bad unfortunately she strapped me down on the bad side I barely made it through with out screaming and this time I was fortunate not to have a dye shot in the shoulder that was really bad . The sad thing it was all preventable a guy was in a hurry to get a cigarette and tossed on boxes he wasn't supposed to and the belt was overloaded anyways because a idiot in charge wasn't doing his job right and the best the safety stop wasn't working. I love working in factories.
