Got the staples pulled out of my shoulder today. Doctor scolded me for pushing too hard too soon, so I have to try to scale back a bit. Risk of stretching it out too soon and then it becomes unstable and then it pops out and then I have to go back in for another surgery.
@Baba I'm supposed to restrict my angles of rotation. Basically no more than 30 degrees in any plane for two weeks, then up to 60, then up to 90, then start PT. I have been using the arm more than I should because it's been feeling pretty good, but I'm putting it at risk.
@B ok, so you won't do that anymore, right?! It's great that it had been feeling pretty good, though.
@B so sad 😢
@B
Something about the phrase "got the staples pulled out of my shoulder" brought me close to a case of the vapours. Can you scale back? What do you do that stresses your shoulder? No more surgeries! Xxxxx
