Surgery for a torn rotator cuff typically lasts about 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the tear. Recovery time can vary, but you may need to wear a sling for several weeks and undergo physical therapy, with full recovery taking several months. Pain management often includes prescribed medications like opioids for immediate post-surgery pain, along with over-the-counter options like ibuprofen or acetaminophen as healing progresses. Always consult your surgeon for specific recommendations based on your condition.
