Shoulder Pain a Couple Years After Surgery Posted: 12-13-03 15:27pm
Brief overview:
i injured my shoulder playing football in
high school and it was called a
subluxation of the shoulder. I pretty
much tore everything in it the doc said
and he went in arthroscopically (can't
spell) and fixed it and it's instability I
believe by anchoring it with an screw that
screws into my bone and is connected with
string and so on.
Now it has been about 4-5 years after the
surgery and my shoulder has been bothering
me lately. It usually did after but I
was able to ignore it until now. When I
raise my right arm it clicks and sends
pain through my shoulder area. Also,
sometimes I could just be doing everyday
activities such as driving or mopping the
floor or especially raising up to put
something away on a shelf and it will send
shooting pain in my shoulder. I have a
appt to see the surgeon who performed the
surgery as a follow-up to see what is
going wrong, but i'm quite worried about
this and was wondering if anyone knew what
could be happening here.
