Does A Reverse Shoulder Replacement Surgery Help In The Treatment Of Constant Shoulder Pain?
I have been told I need reverse shoulder replacement due to a serious accident where I broke 11 bones. The left shoulder healed ok with a metal shielf, but I have already had two surgeries on the right. The pain is constant. Will having this surgery stop the pain and will O regain use of this shoulder?
