Getting surgery on my rotator cuff tomorrow. Was wondering if anyone had any insights/advice about recovery from people who have had this done before. I would like to be able to get back to hiking and maybe climbing by August but I’m not sure how realistic that is. I’d also like to be able to resume skiing hard by the time next season starts (usually October for CO). Any input helps, thanks!
How bad was the injury? Hurt mine a month+ ago then a drunk “friend” skied into me potentially reaggravating it. I have pretty full range of motion just cant lift weights like butterfly sets and if i extend the arm/have an abrupt bounce it can kinda hurt so im trying to decide if its on way to healing or if i really need to go see a doctor/MRI
have you not spoken to a doctor during this process? why are you coming to a ski website for advice on recovering from a shoulder surgery? Go talk to a physical therepast, not a bunch of idiots on the internet lmao.

Sorry to hear about your shoulder man. I would definitely see a doc and get it checked out. Based off the MRI the doc said it was significant and required surgery. I injured it about 2 1/2 months ago and couldn't move it for a solid week but now I have full range of motion and can do light lifting with a little bit of pain. Definitely didn't help it as I still skied some big lines after the injury

Spoken to a doc and will continue to. Just wanted to get other peoples' perspectives who also had this injury/operation and see what their experience was like

My cuff took like 5 months to "fully" recover. Never hurts to check it if it's sharp pain, especially in motion where you put your arm behind your shoulder axis(rotating behind your back n stuff). Might be just some joint problem though, pretty common.
Hiking sure, climbing, proly not for a while dude. Make sure to let it heal proper. Sucks to have a busted wing but you're getting surgery to repair something. Give it the proper time. In the end it's way worth it.

Wow great insight! What are you basing this prognosis on? Did you evaluate his MRI and discuss a PT regimen with his doctor? Did you talk to the surgeon to determine whether the procedure is being done arthroscopicly or via incision? Do you even know OPs age and level of activity??
lmao jfc… yeah op make sure your “busted wing” is healed before you climb.

I just find it ironic that idiots like you and eheath spent all of 2020 telling people to wear masks, deleting threads for “covid disinformation” thinking y’all were medical experts, and then you come in here and drop that amazing piece of advice. You truly are a fuckin genius bro.

fuck off with your dumb bullshit dude literally nobody cares that you hated covid and wanted to spread misinformation to achieve??? the only people who care about covid now are people like you who are still pissed they had to wear a mask 2 years ago, fucking imbecile get over it and shut up.

I don't think I've ever told anyone to wear a mask on here or in real life. Also if I deleted any covid threads it wasn't for "covid disinformafion" but a bunch of angry people being douches and yelling at each other. Pretty much you just doing your normal thing.
Cool 2020 sucked, but damn dude you're holding a shit ton of anger inside. If NS sucks so much just leave. Find another forum, or better yet go outside or something. Or stay here and complain about NS and post angrily forever. That sounds fun too

and to reiterate, we didn't nothing of the sort, like borty said we deleted threads destroyed by idiots like you who post nonsensical bullshit that nobody thinks is true except for you.
what you're posting now is not productive or helpful, you're being a fucking ass hole to some kid who just wants to connect with fellow skiers that have the same injury as him.
Give me one good reason you should be allowed to use this website, I'll wait.
