VerifiedCommon questions
How long is recovery after shoulder replacement?
Most people are out of the sling in four to six weeks and using the arm for light daily tasks within a couple of months. Full strength and motion commonly take six months to a year.
What is the difference between anatomic and reverse shoulder replacement?
An anatomic replacement copies the shoulder's normal shape and needs a working rotator cuff. A reverse replacement swaps the ball and socket positions so the deltoid muscle can power the arm when the cuff is damaged.
Am I a candidate for shoulder replacement?
Surgery is typically considered when arthritis pain limits sleep, reach, or daily activities despite therapy, medication, and injections. A shoulder surgeon will examine your rotator cuff and imaging to recommend the right type.
