Since the shoulder is the most mobile joint of the body, patients may need a shoulder arthroscopy and not realize that a bundled payments surgical center can perform it. Shoulder arthroscopy is a common procedure that involves the surgeon making much smaller cuts than traditional surgery. Once the incisions are made, the surgeon uses a small camera to examine the joint and determine what areas may be damaged or causing pain. Shoulder arthroscopy is beneficial because its minimally invasive approach can reduce pain, inflammation, and recovery time compared to open surgery.
Shoulder arthroscopy is a good avenue to determine what is causing pain or friction in the joint at a bundled payments surgical center. Some issues may include cartilage that has been torn or damaged, shoulder instability/dislocation, or torn tendons that attach to the joint. It is often recommended if treatments such as rest, medications, or physical therapy are not effective. One of the most common reasons for patients to get a shoulder arthroscopy is if they have torn or damaged their rotator cuff. Recovery is often faster than traditional surgery, but it may take several weeks or months to totally recover and regain full range of motion. Rehabilitation can help speed the process along with regular visits to a physical therapist and follow-up appointments.
