Shoulder Pain Post Surgery
Posted: 03-12-07 16:02pm

I had surgery on my shoulder after an accident at work,after P.T. I am still in intense pain every day and night.My surgeon said there was nothing he can do.I had a M.R.I. and the results said there was a degenerative cyst in the greater tuberosity of my humerous,as well as a focal partial tear involving the distal supraspinatus tendon,also a slight tear of the anterior glenoid labrum.The Doctor says this is all normal,yet I can not move my arm well and I am in constant intense pain!Does this seem normal to you?

If you haven't already received a second opinion I would highly suggest getting one. Make sure the the second opinion is with an Orthopedic Surgeon that specializes in shoulders. No, it is not normal to have 2 partial tears and a cyst. All of these can contribute to an unstable shoulder thus leading to increased pain and loss of ROM.

Good Luck.
