Frequently asked questions about shoulder

Schedule an appointment

A rotator cuff injury usually causes pain when lifting the arm, weakness, difficulty performing overhead movements or nighttime pain when sleeping on the affected side. A definitive diagnosis is obtained with a medical evaluation and imaging studies such as ultrasound or MRI.

Not necessarily. Pain when raising the arm can be due to tendinitis, subacromial impingement, bursitis or inflammation. However, if the pain is intense, sudden or accompanied by weakness, it could be a partial or complete tear. Medical evaluation is key to identifying the real cause.

Most shoulder injuries do not require surgery. Many patients improve with physical therapy, medications, injections or changes in their activities. Surgery is recommended only when there is a significant tear, recurrent instability or when pain does not improve with conservative treatments.

Recovery depends on the type of procedure, but generally ranges from 6 weeks to 4 months. In rotator cuff surgeries, the process may take a bit longer, as it requires healing and progressive rehabilitation. Your recovery plan will be personalized according to your injury.

Yes. Many shoulder injuries respond very well to non-surgical treatments such as physical therapy, guided exercises, anti-inflammatories or injections. The goal is always to try conservative management first, and only consider surgery if pain persists or there is an injury that requires it.
