I was back to work around the same time as you but it was about a year before I was 100% (back to playing ball).
Add me to the list...
Sounds about right, I was off a little over two weeks.
Same as Collin, took about a year before I could bench or anything. I remember trying to bench for the first time, just the bar was painful.
Hang in there, it gets better.
Whatever you do, DON'T try and force a quick recovery.
Pain is a good thing.
It tells you to "STOP DOING THAT".
kinda what I was expecting. thanks.
I had rotator cuff surgery in march and spent the next 3 months sleeping in the recliner. I still sleep with a support under my shoulder and a small pillow under my arm. Getting over the pain --I'm still waiting for that. I have had pain every day since the accident but have resigned myself to the fact thats just the way its going to be. I find myself using my other arm to a greater extent now though. Hopefully time heals all wounds.
had 1 ,sons had 2 . do the therpy.
sounds to me, you're going back way too soon
how about some input from Brothers with wounded wings !
this affects you the rest of your life. heal properly!!
