Suggest Remedy For Shoulder Pain

Dear Dr.,I have been operated for a fracture on the left hand and replanted a rod below the shoulder and above the knee on 07.08.11. But after three months I could not fully lift the hand upwards. I am doing regular exercise for movement of the shoulder. as advised by the surgeon, shall I take an injection on the shoulder? Kindly advise.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

If the bone is completely united then physiotherapy is the only treatment right now for you. Get a fresh X-ray done to know the status of the union.

Thank you. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Jaideep Gaver, Orthopedic Surgeon
