It is the bone at the top of your shoulder. Where the arm meets the torso.

To be a little more specific, the rotator cuff is not a bone, but actually four muscles (the Teres Minor, the Infraspinatus, the Supraspinatus and the Subscapularis if you want to know specifics) that get their name because they help rotate the arm and provide stability for the shoulder.

The largest Rotated Cuff Muscle is in the top of the shoulder and holds your tendons and muscles to the bone, symptons are not being able to lift your arm up above your head without severe pain, Clinical terminology is rotated Cuff Syndrome

The rotator cuff is a collection of muscles that act on the glenohumeral joint (shoulder joint) which are used to rotate the arm. There are four muscles in the rotator cuff called Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor and Subscapularis.

Rotator cuff is composed of four muscles. These muscles keep the head of the humerus in proximity to the scapula bone. Any force, that tries to pull away the head of the humerus will cause injury to the rotator cuff muscles. Any body can get such injury.

Well, your 'rotator cuff' is comprised of four muscles: Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, and Subscapularis. These four muscles encompass, and therefore stabolize, the glenohumeral joint (the joint where your arm[humerus bone] joins your shoulder blade[scapula bone]). These muscles help move your arm at the shoulder in all angles. So, if you have a 'rotator cuff tear' it is an injury or strain to one or more of these muscles.

Many muscles are no where near it like my toe, leg, heart, etc.

1- Supraspinatus and its function is to abduct the arm ,and it's innervated by the Suprascapular nerve.

2- Infraspinatus muscle and its function is to externally rotate the arm ,and it's innervated by the Suprascapular nerve.

3- Teres minor muscle and its function is to externally rotate the arm ,and it's innervated by the Axillary nerve.

4- Subscapularis muscle and its function is to internally rotate the humerus ,and it's innervated by the Upper and Lower subscapular nerve.

I just had my rotator cuff repaired and was informed that the general cost of the surgery and follow up care would be in the range of 25,000.00 all in. I should qualify this by saying that I did go to one of the top centers in the country located in Los Angeles. I am not sure if this effects the cost, but I was more than willing to pay my share and wanted the best care available.

Naproxen is an antiinflammatory drug, and may reduce inflammation in the rotator cuff. In itself, it cannot heal a torn ligament.

A rotator cuff surgery can have you out for about 6 weeks before you are functional again. Just do as the doctor says after surgery, take you pain medicines and therapy if needed and you will be fine.

if i would be you, i would go first for physical therapy. they can help you do to the exerice in the right way. and then you can ask them to give you some home exericise. if i would be you, i would go first for physical therapy. they can help you do to the exerice in the right way. and then you can ask them to give you some home exericise.

Workout on ur back. The back takes up 70% of your upper body muscle. It makes you look huge too.

Hello,

I see you are asking "What are the symptoms for rotator cuff disease? "Symptoms of a rotator cuff disorder include pain and weakness in the shoulder. Most often, the pain is on the side and front of the upper arm and shoulder. It may hurt or be impossible to do everyday things, such as comb your hair, tuck in your shirt, or reach for something.

ICD 9 codes are used for medical billing and coding. The ICD 9 code for status post rotator cuff surgery is 83.63.

It usually takes between four and six months to fully recover from rotator cuff surgery. The first couple weeks after the surgery, the arm has to remain immobilized; after this, physical therapy begins and becomes more intense over the weeks to follow. A person's overall health, whether they smoke, and if their blood sugar is controlled (if they have diabetes) can all make a large difference on how well he or she will heal from the surgery and how quickly he or she will be able to have full use of their arm again.

Usually after the first week it starts getting better, but it depends on you following doctor's advice. I had this procedure 2 years ago, for the first week it was VERY VERY rough but the next week it was better by the third week, it was back to business as usual. the first week is important, no activity at all.

I had rotator cuff surgery and was in a sling and immobilized for 1 week. Then, went to physical therapy and was told to do a few exercises letting my arm drop down to my side and just let it move in small circles...moving it with the momentum of your body. The Dr. also told me to leave it out of my sling at home..but never to try to raise it above my shoulder height, or to try and reach my hand where I could not see it. When going out in public, to wear my sling. Every week I attend physical therapy. I am at week 4 and being able to do most normal movements..except any lifting. I had arthroscopic surgery, and I am told it is very different from the way it used to be done, which I am sure it makes a difference with your recovery.
