Well I just had my opp a few days ago, to shave bone from an impingement to the rotor cuff, & remove & clean up some frazzled tissue after a break last winter, I pretty much know what to do for the recovery, any idea on how long I should leave it before getting back to climbing & cutting?:stickyman::001_smile:

 

I can't say for your particular op, but I had my shoulder socket put back together earlier in the year. Surgeon said 3 months off, when I got to see the physio I ended up with 5 and a half months off. Take your recovery day by day and don't push it. They do know what they're talking about so however long they say is how long you need. I know lots of people go back earlier than their told but a little short term gain isn't worth a long term problem.

 

Best of luck with it

your looking at 3-5 months with no problems, and doing what the pyhsio tells you, any problems and it could be never getting full use back, you'll grow to hate your "blue" rubber band, (anyome who's had a shoulder op will know what I mean), start light and dont overdo it, thats what the young upcomers are for...lol..., you should be back to norm by the middle of the year, good luck and enjoy the enforced break
