Shoulder Replacement
Shoulder Replacement: Restoring Strength and Comfort
Shoulder replacement, also known as shoulder arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace damaged parts of the shoulder joint with artificial components. It is an effective solution for relieving pain and restoring function in individuals with severe arthritis, injuries, or other shoulder conditions.
When to Consider Shoulder Replacement
Shoulder replacement may be recommended if you experience:
● Persistent shoulder pain that interferes with daily activities or sleep.
● Limited range of motion or weakness in the shoulder.
● Advanced arthritis (osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis).
● Severe fractures or rotator cuff injuries that cannot be repaired.
Types of Shoulder Replacement
● Total Shoulder Replacement: Replaces both the ball (humeral head) and socket (glenoid) of the joint.
● Reverse Shoulder Replacement: Used for severe rotator cuff injuries, where the ball and socket positions are reversed to improve arm movement.
● Partial Shoulder Replacement (Hemiarthroplasty): Replaces only the damaged part of the joint, usually the humeral head.
Benefits of Shoulder Replacement Surgery
● Relief from chronic shoulder pain
● Improved mobility and range of motion
● Enhanced strength and ability to perform daily tasks
Recovery and Rehabilitation
● Post-Surgery: Patients typically start gentle movement within a day or two.
● Physical Therapy: A tailored rehabilitation program helps restore strength and function.
● Recovery Time: Many patients resume light activities within 6 weeks and regain full recovery in 3-6 months.
