Hurt my right shoulder about 20 years ago. Just gimped around at work for several days, could not use a hammer at all and very light wrenching. Had a couple of cortisone shots. That didn't do much so they did an MRI. Said I had one torn and one ruptured tendon. I could still work so didn't want surgery as I could not afford to lay off. I did a lot of exercise on my own and it got near normal. Then when I turned 63 it really started acting up again. Could not raise my arm all the way up when laying on a creeper. Had to use other arm to lift it and let it back down. That is why I decided to retire at 63. After I got away from heavy work for a few months it got ok again. It is better than my left shoulder now but they both hurt. Can't lay on them, can't hold them up for any length of time, but, they would have to get a lot worse before I would consider surgery at my age. Wife had hers done and the tendon pulled out of where they fastened it to her bones. She has rheumathoid arthritis so bones are soft. She has had eleven surgery's over the years and that one was the most difficult for her and me. Brother in law had wear and tear repairs and came out in great shape, but long recovery.
