Prior shoulder surgeries, inflammation, instability.

Thanks for the info. Didn't hear about those shoulder procedures. Tim

Thanks, I am seeing my treating orthopedic surgeon on the 15th of March 10 who completed my last surgery. From my x-rays since 2005 then second x-rays in 2008 my arthritis is getting worse. He says since I am 46 years old eventually a partial shoulder replacement maybe an option if my shoulder continues to get worse. I just wanted another opinion. Tim

I have had two surgeries on my right shoulder one was for impingement and the other for a tear. The first one was in 2001 and the second was in 2005. I still deal with pain and inflammation if I rotate my arm or if I extend my arm out. I also have a lot of weakness in my subacromial area and muscles around my shoulder. I try to stretch and do my strengthening, similar to my physical therapy. I have osteoarthritis. Would it cause instability in the muscles and tendons in my shoulder? I also had three shoulder surgeries on my left arm and have had pretty good luck. Any ideas?
