Rotator Cuff Injuries: Do You Really Need Surgery? What You Should Know About Your Options

Rotator Cuff InjuriesA healthy active lifestyle is one of the keys to longevity, but activity can cause many individuals to become more prone to injury and wear and tear. Your shoulder is a combination of bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles that provide an extensive range of motion in common everyday tasks, as well as in advanced athletic performance. Whether you’re using a walker, picking up a heavy grocery bag, or driving the ball 200 yards, an optimal range of motion is key to healthy living. As we age, many people suffer from shoulder pain and conditions such as rotator cuff tears.

Most tears of the rotator cuff occur slowly over time as the tissue wears out. They are usually found in patients over the age of 50. Many times, patients have rotator cuff tears that seem to be a small nuisance initially, but over time, they can progress into painful complete tears or multiple tears within the rotator cuff.

If you have tried anti-inflammatories, resting, pain medications or physical therapy and are still having trouble with range-of-motion or impingements and discomfort, you need to seek medical treatment.

Any force strong enough to tear tendons also damages and weakens the surrounding ligaments. Typically, a surgical procedure focuses on what is seen on an MRI, along with the evaluation of the overall shoulder stability, which is essential if the individual wants to return to their normal activities. For full tears of the rotator cuff, surgery is most likely necessary, but if the person can use their arm with some mobility, the tear may be partial, and biologic regenerative treatment can help heal the tissues.

Shoulder pain is multifactorial, and rotator cuff result in instability, frozen shoulder, and severe discomfort. In the case of rotator cuff tears, surgery is not always necessary. In fact, most patients can recover quite well with biologic regenerative treatment.
