Shoulder
Shoulder care covers pain, stiffness, instability, and rotator cuff problems. Many shoulder conditions improve with non-surgical treatment; some tears and instabilities may benefit from surgery.
What it addresses
The shoulder is a mobile joint that can be affected by tendon problems, instability, stiffness, and injury. Care aims to reduce pain and restore movement and stability.
Typical procedures
Most shoulder problems are first managed without surgery. When surgery is appropriate, many shoulder procedures can be done arthroscopically (keyhole), depending on the condition.
Approach
Conservative care — physiotherapy and time — is considered first wherever it is medically appropriate, as many shoulder problems settle without an operation. When surgery is recommended, what it involves and what to expect afterwards are explained so the decision is shared.
Recovery
Shoulder rehabilitation is usually gradual and physiotherapy is important, especially after cuff repair. Recovery varies with the condition and the individual. A personal rehabilitation and follow-up plan is set for each patient.
