What are the restrictions after a shoulder surgery?
It depends on the surgery. We tailor our post-operative regimen to each patient. Small rotator cuff tears do not always have to have a sling, while large tears can be kept in a sling for up to 6 weeks. After some types of shoulder replacements, we don't use a sling at all, and we often use a sling for a shorter period of time following replacements than when we repair the rotator cuff. Your grandfather needs to make sure he understands his doctor's plan. Tom Parr READ MORE
