Please see your physician. If there are complications, it can have very serious effects, sometimes resulting in a blood clot which would ulitmately result in death. There is definitely going to be some pain for several weeks following the surgery. The muscles surrounding the shoulder are immobilized for several weeks to allow any sutures to be strengthened by the healing process, which unfortunately weakens them due to non-use. This weaking of the muscles cause the shoulder to become somewhat unstable an can literally pop out of socket. Until the muscles can be exercised and restrengthened, this can cause a lot of pain in the shoulder. Also, keep in mind that the type of surgery performed plays a large part in the pain level you can expect If te tear required the surgeon to drill into bone to reattach the tear, you of course are going to have much more pain during recovery than someone with less intrusive reconstruction of the tear.

How long is recovery from distal clavical resection?

I had an AC decompression (distal clavicle resection) on 12/12/08. It is now 3/3/09 and I am about 80% better. My pain before the surgery was quite bad and I had been favoring the arm for a long time so my recovery may be longer than some people. Also, I am 47 years old, so younger people might recover better. I have been doing physical therapy twice a week since the surgery. I now have full range of motion and feel fine most of the time. I still have some minor pain when trying to use my arm over my head.


What will happen if you don't do scoliosis surgery?

It really depends on the individual case. I have severe scoliosis and I was told I could decide. If I didn't have surgery it was possible I would have significant pain in the future. Apparently Usane Bolt has scoliosis so that is proof you can live a normal healthy life. After thinking for quite a while I decided to opt for the surgery. I will be having it next summer.
