A member asked:
Is it normal for spasms in same arm after rotator cuff repair surgery that it affects sleep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Check with surgeon: I would see the surgeon who operated on you to diagnose if it is "spasm" and maybe s/he will advise physical therapy &/or muscle relaxant.Best wishes.
