Avatar n tn What underlying conditions if any do you have in your shoulders? I have had 3 shoulder operations and this is one of the things they warned me about happening if I did not follow all of my therapy after the operations.
Avatar f tn HI After having subacrominal bursectomy by arthroscope in december 2009 i developed a post-op frozen shoulder. I had no internal or external rotation and could only raise my arm behind my back to my hip pocket on my jeans. In march 2010 i had manipulation under anestetic with arthroscope and the surgeon achieved 160 degrees of movement. I have had physio therapy twice a week and have also been receiving hydrotherapy twice a week.
Avatar f tn I am a disabled Veteran. Due to my service connected shoulder injury I have had 7 operations. In the time I had the operations over the course of 4 years I was on OxyContin for three and a half years of it. Finally the shoulder felt better but the pain meds were quite hard to stop on my own so I went to rapid detox doctor in Manhattan that had me on a ton of things.

Avatar m tn It is difficult to answer your question because there is very little information. Children under 5 years is almost always not operated on. With children there is usually two operations, the second operation to account for the growth factor of a child.
Avatar f tn My daughter had two operations to correct the Septum.....(after taking medication to put her into menopause to cause less or no bleeding during the operations)......she waited a year and got pregnant again.......at the 5 months she lost all of the amniotic fluid but retained her plug and her cervix was still closed....it was suggested she abort (not knowing that some of these babies will survive but are born earlier).......girl......apparently a 1 in 500 chance of this happening........
Avatar m tn Pain I have is when I throw a baseball or footbal or anything my shoulder hurts like I have never felt pain before for about 1 minute and starts to get better. Question is does this sound like brusitius or the labrum that would be more likely causing the pain?
Avatar f tn Someone has heard you .. and I will send information about Shriners's and St Judes I find ...stay hopeful ...many children are brought to the US for operations they cannot afford .or get ..we are finding out further information google and see .
Avatar m tn I'm 19 years old. When I was born, there was a fleshy sack hanging off of my left thumb. After a surgical removal of the sack, they opened it up and saw that it was full of anatomical refuse, like bone fragments and ligaments. With that said, my actual left thumb was crooked, and it has been crooked my whole life. The proximal joint can bend too much with ease, all the way down to my palm, and it's very unstable and wobbly.

Avatar n tn Hello I had an accident where I fractured a part of the tibial plateau. In one knee. It's a simple fracture from what I gather, 4-5 ? inches long, but the x-ray wasn't precise enough for the Ortho. who requested an MRI with a 3-D reconstucted image. She said that if there's too much distance between the bones, too much loss of alignment, surgery will be necessary. Haven't sought a second opinion yet, but I'm wondering if there aren't alternatives to surgery?
Avatar m tn Does MRI of the shoulder see the scapula (pain is in upper right back around shoulder blade)?
1524673 tn?1327841500 Although other then the abdominal pain, the confusion and dissiness, weakness and paralisis in my left side can be probably from both my head and my adrenals. I have also ruptured c3 in my neck, the only pain I have from this is in my shoulder and arm a little in my neck but not much. C2 and C4 are bulging. I see a doctor for that on Tuesday. Until 2 weeks ago when I started passing out I avoided doctors because I was scared and had a bad experance with a Endo last year.
Avatar m tn The doctors have not been clear about exactly what they have done, but it seems that over the 3 operations they have decompressed the entire length of the ulnar nerve... transposed it... and removed some scar tissue... (possibly also cut a ligament) I basically feel so helpless and depressed that this hasn't worked for the third time and would like to know if anyone has anything to say that they feel is relevent or any suggestions on my plan of action or possible complications.
Avatar m tn My symptoms started about a year ago, initially, and for about 6 months, I just had right elbow pain, which I thought might be tendonitis. About 6 months ago, I developed pain in my right shoulder and down my entire arm, including tingling in my hand, though the pain was most intense in my elbow and shoulder. I have been going to Physical Therapy for about 5 months with no improvement. Now that I've finally had an MRI, where do I go from here? Surgery?
Avatar m tn about five days ago after a trip to the districts I noticed a pain,well more like a sensation that radiated from my shoulder down the back of my right arm to my fingers from the little finger going in.
Avatar n tn The comment you address may be there is unknown information that is not available at the time when making the comment and they want to protect their options. The danger of AAA is the possible dissection and internal bleeding, and the procedure may have different risks. Repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm may be performed surgically through an open incision or in a minimally-invasive procedure called endovascular aneurysm repair.
Avatar f tn I have a problem with my shoulder where it dislocates all the time so i end up in the E.R. allot. About 4 months ago i was given morphine before they put my shoulder back in and i developed a raised itchy rash where they had injected it on my arm. The next time i had morphine was about a month later (shoulder again) and i got a rash all over my body so they gave me an shot of antihistamine (poor spelling) and the rash went down.
Avatar f tn Has anyone here had shoulder or elbow replacement im really worried i need them both replaced and i just cant stop worrying about it i know its got to be done as i cant sleep with pain. but i dont know what to expect i would be gratefull for any advice thanks all.
