Shoulder impingement occurs when the top outer edge of your shoulder blade, called the acromion, rubs against (“impinges on”) or pinches your rotator cuff beneath it, causing pain and irritation. Surgery is considered if nonsurgical treatments don’t relieve your pain.

The more intense the injury, the more specific the movements must be 👨🏻‍⚕️ - Give these a try and see how they feel

Rotator cuff surgery is performed on patients to repair tears or damage on the tendons that make up the rotator cuff in the shoulder. This procedure aims to reattach the torn tendon to the bone and restore strength and function to the shoulder. Both open repair and arthroscopic repair have their advantages as well as disadvantages. The choice of procedure often depends on factors such as the size and location of the tear and the patient’s overall health. After surgery, we always recommend a reha
