Post-Op Shoulder Surgery Guidelines-Best shoulder surgeon in Bangalore-Praxis Ortho Care

1. POST-OPERATIVE SHOULDER SURGERY GUIDELINES by Dr. Sushal Shanthakumar Post-operative shoulder cares are very critical. Most of the time I found patients become impatient due to delay in resuming their daily activity. The recovery time varies based on surgery type and injury but it’s also true that your wrong post-surgical care mistake might extend your recovery time. FIRST, LET’S HAVE A CHECKLIST OF ALL THE MUST-HAVE THINGS YOU NEED TO BUY. DETACHABLE SHOWER HEAD You have to protect your incision from water for a certain period. A detachable showerhead is the easiest and safest way to do that. PUMP SOAP In case one of your shoulder gone through surgery and use can use only one arm then pump soap is the best solution. SHOWER CHAIR You should be more conscious about falling. Sometimes the pain killers and other post- operative medication might leave you dizzy. WATERPROOF BANDAGES As I told earlier you have to keep your incision dry until the doctor provides further instruction. Waterproof bandages do the job very well. ICE COMPRESSION You should be more conscious about falling. Sometimes the pain killers and other post- operative medication might leave you dizzy. MEDICATION As per the instruction of your doctors, you can take local anesthetics, opioids, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to get relief from extensive pain and swelling.
