Rotator Cuff Tear Facts ⬇️ Rotator cuff tears are more common as we age However, just because you have one does NOT mean that you will have pain or a significant loss of strength of function 50% of people with a rotator cuff tear are asymptomatic (without symptoms) But, the 50% of people with a rotator cuff tear are symptomatic (with symptoms), so there does seem to be an association there Regardless, we know that most people with rotator cuff tears DO NOT REQUIRE surgery Physical therapy alone vs. surgery + exercise/physical therapy shows no clinically significant difference over the course of a year However, for SOME people in SOME situations, surgery + rehab is the best option 🔑 So the key takeaways are this: - Don’t rush to get surgery if you have a painful shoulder with a rotator cuff tear - Make sure you get quality rehab guidance from a professional for at least 3-6 months before considering surgery (in most cases) - If your pain/function is not improving at a rate that makes sense to both you and your PT (over a 3-6 month period), consider a surgical consult with an Orthopedic surgeon ----- 🎯 If you need help coming up with a plan for your shoulder or any other painful issue/injury, I can help in 2 ways: 1️⃣ Work with me 𝟭-𝗼𝗻-𝟭 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲: I’ll perform a detailed assessment, put together an individualized program based on where you’re currently at and where you want to get to (your goals), and then coach you through the process of getting there ➡️ Tap below to fill out my application form (I’ll respond within 48 hours): https://lnkd.in/gZ5Uey7B 2️⃣ Join over 2000 others in my app: if you don’t need 1-on-1 coaching but need structure, my app includes 𝟭𝟬 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 (including my 8-week 𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗𝗘𝗥 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗠) and 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲𝟬 guided mobility, strength and stability routines within 𝟮𝟱 categorized sections covering the whole body ➡️ Tap below to get full access to my app 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 for your first 𝟳 𝗗𝗔𝗬𝗦 and then 𝟰𝟰% 𝗢𝗙𝗙: https://lnkd.in/g8DHxEVC ----- 📚 References: PMID: 36100305 PMID: 27385156 ----- 📕 Definitions: - Rotator Cuff Tendons: the parts that connect the rotator cuff muscles to the upper arm bone/humerus - Partial Thickness Tear: a tear in the tendon that only goes part of the way through the tendon - Full Thickness Tear: a tear in the tendon goes all the way through the tendon *Partial of Full thickness tears are usually described in terms of how deep the tear is in the tendon and doesn't refer to length, width or other dimensions

When you have an orthopedic condition that causes problems, conservative measures can help. But when you’re in need of more relief, orthopedic injections are the way to go. When you’re suffering from an injury or arthritis, pain relief and restoring functionality are the two goals our team has for you. Initially, this means at-home care, like rest and anti-inflammatory medications. Physical therapy is also a great tool to help you regain strength and reduce discomfort in your body. However, these treatments only go so far, especially when you have osteoarthritis or tissue damage within your joints. The next step in treatment is usually some form of injection. There are many forms of injections, each of which works in a specific way to reduce inflammation and heal tissues at the site of degeneration or injury.

Founder St. Pete Physical Therapy; Doctor of Physical Therapy, Board Certified Sports Clinical Specialist
Read about the benefits of physical therapy BEFORE and AFTER surgery for athletes. Often times when we incur an injury that will need surgery, the surgery will be scheduled several weeks out. This 'waiting period' is an excellent time to get started with physical therapy at St Pete Physical Therapy. Injury usually goes paired with swelling, stiffness of joints, loss of range of motion and loss of strength. Physical Therapy before surgery can help you improve on all those problems and can lead to better outcomes in the early phases after surgery. And the best part... you get to meet all of us at St Pete Physical Therapy so that after surgery you will feel comfortable and you will have one less thing to worry about.😀 #stpetephysicaltherapy #sportsmedicine #ilovestpete #injuryprevention #physicaltherapy #sportsrehab #injuryrehab
