HEALING SHOULDER CONDITIONS WITHOUT SURGERY

SHOULDER INJURIES AND ARTHRITIS

Previously, when someone got joint arthritis pain, chronic shoulder or muscle tears, the only solution considered to relieve the pain and heal the condition was surgery. Without cutting the shoulder open in an operating room, full or partial recovery was considered out of the question.

This is because the human body undergoes a regenerative and degenerative process each day. In case of an injury or over-usage of a ligament, muscle, or tendon, the regenerative process has the job of healing the body. In contrast, the degenerative process has done the maximum damage it can. The regenerative process is responsible for healing the condition with regenerative medicine.

When the severity of the damage for a shoulder injury surpasses the body's natural healing process, it results in an immobilized, highly painful, and weakened shoulder.

Regenerative Medicine has the power to offset this damage by encouraging the natural healing processes of the body to work faster and harder. It enhances the body's regenerative process to repair the damaged tissues quicker and naturally.

With surgery, there are significant risks as well as a lengthy and tiring rehabilitation process. That's why it is sensible to exhaust all safer options before making the life-altering decision to go for surgery. Regenerative Medicine is a relatively way much safer alternative to surgery with great chances at a full recovery.

If you are going through severe joint arthritis or a chronic shoulder injury, Regenerative Medicine has shown promising results for various patients. While no guarantees are there, the chances of success are excellent, and the arthritis treatment has made many lives better.

For weekend warriors and professional athletes, regenerative presents a fast way to heal from their shoulder injuries and return to their sport faster than any other way.

SURGERY VS. REGENERATIVE MEDICINE

Surgery has great risks and long and painful rehabilitation afterward. The risks for a typical shoulder surgery include:

Blood Clots
Damage to an artery
Damage to ligaments
Dislocation or loosening
Fracture
Infection
Joint stiffness
Nerve damage

The risk with regenerative medicine is minimal. The procedure requires only a tiny incision to be made, and no sutures are needed for the process. That's why the chances of infection are less than 1%.

RECOVERY TIME: SURGERY VS. REGENERATIVE MEDICINE

The post-surgery recovery period can be multiple days for shoulder surgery, and complete healing takes six months to a year of physical therapy and painful rehabilitation. Regenerative Medicine needs minimal recovery time. Shoulder replacement surgery benefits the patient, but life after surgery cannot be as active and pain-free as before. Regenerative Medicine heals the muscles and joints like they are new.

THE SHOULDER CONDITIONS INCLUDE:

Arthritis of the shoulder joint
Partial Rotator Cuff Tears
Glenoid Labrum Tears or Degeneration
Rotator Cuff Tendonitis
Recurrent Shoulder Dislocations

ROTATOR CUFF INJURIES

The shoulder is the most mobile of the body, with an amazing ball and socket structure. Its surgery is understandably complex because of its anatomy. Due to these joints' level of activity, rotator cuff injuries are a widespread occurrence. Every year more than 40,000 surgeries are carried out to repair rotator cuff tears. Due to the level of its complexity, only 60% of such surgeries are successful.

The cause of this is apparent. Like any other injury, the shoulder area requires intervention to heal the damaged tissues for the injured muscles, ligaments, and tendons. It is foreseeable that in surgery of invasive nature where the whole thing is cut open and later stitched back up, there is a high likelihood of further damage result in new unhealthy scar tissue. This can further reduce the capability to repair the damage and heal it.

On the other hand, in regenerative medicine, the focus is on supplying an added amount of healing to the affected site to elicit an accelerated recovery for the injured muscles, tendons, and ligaments and a very high potential to avoid the need for surgery altogether.
