Persistent shoulder pain that interferes with dressing, lifting, or sleeping may indicate advanced joint degeneration. At Rapha Sports and Regenerative Orthopaedics in Bengaluru, Dr. Joel Prasad evaluates patients thoroughly before recommending Total Shoulder Replacement as a definitive solution.
Total shoulder replacement is typically advised when severe arthritis or joint destruction results in significant cartilage loss and functional limitation. The procedure involves replacing damaged joint surfaces with prosthetic components designed to restore alignment and smooth movement. Careful surgical planning, implant selection, and structured rehabilitation contribute to long term success and joint stability.
Recovery involves guided physiotherapy to regain strength, improve range of motion, and restore confidence in shoulder use. Modern surgical techniques aim to enhance durability while minimising recovery complications. Addressing advanced shoulder arthritis at the right time can significantly improve daily comfort and independence.
If ongoing shoulder pain has not responded to conservative treatment, schedule an evaluation to understand whether Total Shoulder Replacement is appropriate.
