excercise for fractured shoulder
(2 discussions)
I recently fractured my right shoulder and wore a brace for 6 weeks and still cannot move my arm up and down as I normally once did,is this normal and do I need to excercise it? I have an appointment with my Dr. next week but just wanted a basic idea what to expect from this injury. Thank you in advance for your time. Sincerely, Bianca

I fractured my right shoulder on 7/31. My company doctor sent me to an orthopeadic doctor. He now has me doing some exercises. Some the therapist has to do. However she and I are concerned about how much pain I am in. She said in all her years she has never seen anyone keep getting worse like I am. Can you give me some advice and should I seek a 2nd opinon?

I just fractured my left shoulder and it was put in an embolizer. I was told by the orthopedic doctor to take it out several times a day and do these five shoulder/arm exercises. Will I need additional physical therapy after the fracture is healed if I do these exercises, which really hurt! What else or exercises can I do without causing any further damage to my shoulder?
