A member asked:

Is throbbing normal in the incision area after having a shoulder arthoscopy done?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely: shoulder surgery tends to be painful it is not uncommon to have pain at your surgical site following your procedure but things should be improving daily and if they're not you may need to contact your provider so that they were aware and they need to decide if you need to be examined
