Common questions

How long is recovery after shoulder arthroscopy?
It depends on what was done. Simple procedures may allow return to normal activity in a few weeks, while repairs of the rotator cuff or labrum commonly take four to six months.
Will I need a sling?
Usually yes, at least briefly. For repairs, a sling is typically worn for about four to six weeks; for simpler procedures it may be days. Your surgeon will advise.
Is arthroscopy an option for shoulder arthritis?
Arthroscopy generally offers limited, temporary benefit for arthritis. Advanced shoulder arthritis is more often treated with other options, including shoulder replacement when symptoms are severe.
