Frequently asked questions
When Should I Visit An Orthopaedic Shoulder Specialist?
You should consider visiting an orthopedic shoulder specialist if you experience any of the following:
- Persistent Shoulder Pain: If shoulder pain lasts for more than a few weeks despite rest and over-the-counter treatments, it’s time to seek professional advice.
- Swelling or Inflammation: Noticeable swelling, redness, or warmth around the shoulder joint that doesn’t subside could indicate a serious underlying condition.
- Limited Mobility or Stiffness: If you find it difficult to lift, rotate, or move your shoulder normally, it’s important to consult a specialist to prevent further damage.
- Instability or Weakness: If your shoulder feels like it might slip out of place or lacks strength, this could be a sign of ligament or structural issues that need medical evaluation.
Do I need surgery for my shoulder condition?
Your condition may be treated with non-surgical methods like medication, physical therapy, or injections. An orthopaedic shoulder specialist may consider surgery if these non-surgical options don’t provide relief.
If your shoulder symptoms have been persistent and worsening, it is highly advisable to seek medical attention immediately.
What can I expect during my initial consultation with an orthopaedic shoulder surgeon?
During your initial consultation with an orthopaedic shoulder surgeon, you can expect the following:
- Discussion of Symptoms: The surgeon will ask about your shoulder pain, any injuries, and how it affects your daily activities.
- Physical Examination: They’ll check your shoulder’s range of motion, strength, and look for any signs of swelling or tenderness.
- Medical History Review: You’ll discuss your medical history, including past injuries or surgeries, and any medications you’re currently taking.
- Diagnostic Tests: The surgeon may order X-rays or an MRI for further investigation. These tests may not be performed during the initial consultation but rather referred for later review during a follow-up visit.
- Treatment Options: The surgeon may discuss potential treatment options during the initial consultation. A detailed treatment plan might require reviewing the results of any diagnostic tests in a follow-up appointment.
