A member asked:

I have frozen shoulder 3 months after rotator cuff surgery despite following all pt directions. is it possible to overcome or will i need more surgery?

Additional procedure: If after 3 months you are really "frozen" you may need another MRI and if repair is intact, you may need a manipulation. If repair is return, you should discuss with your doctor re-repair

Surgery: Arthrofibrosis after surgery (stiffness) often needs surgical capsular release/debride adhesions if severe at 3 months- manipulations can tear the repair- suggest discussing experience with your doc
