Ice should generally be applied to the shoulder after rotator cuff surgery for the first 24 to 48 hours to help reduce swelling and pain. During this time, it’s recommended to apply ice for 15-20 minutes every hour as needed. After the initial recovery period, the frequency and duration can be adjusted based on individual comfort and the guidance of a healthcare provider. Always follow your surgeon's specific recommendations regarding post-operative care.
