Torn rotator cuff
It eventually healed with therapy and
cortisone
shots. I had a hip replacement in September. That was easier than this pain in my shoulder. Any advice from someone else’s experience would be wonderful. This site has helped me so much. Thankyou

shot he gave me back in Feb just isn't working as well as it did last year. So he sends me to a physical therapist to help with my plantar faciitis.
