What Could Cause Severe Heaviness In The Shoulder After A Total Shoulder Replacement A Few Years Back?
Hi there. I was wondering if you’d be able to help me. I had a total shoulder replacement May 8, 2018. I’ve only been able to move my shoulder passively since surgery. Now it looks like I have a brick in it. Can you tell me by a picture and x-ray what you think could be wrong?
Please try to upload your X-ray study. We will try to give an opinion based on the X-ray. Consulting with an orthopedic surgeon for a physical exam, would be the best option in order to determine what is going on.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
