Shoulder replacement is usually considered when simple actions become difficult. Lifting objects, reaching overhead, or even dressing can trigger pain that feels sharp and persistent. Over time, people stop using the shoulder fully, which only adds to stiffness.
At Dr Pramod Kumar Surve’s Pune practice, shoulder replacement is approached as a solution for restoring function, not just reducing pain. Severe arthritis or injury can damage the shoulder joint beyond natural repair, making replacement a meaningful option.
Modern shoulder replacement procedures aim to recreate smooth joint motion. Recovery focuses on controlled movement, allowing the shoulder to regain strength gradually. With guided physiotherapy, many patients notice steady improvement in range and comfort.
What surprises many is how much shoulder pain affects sleep and posture. Addressing the issue often improves overall comfort and energy levels throughout the day.
If shoulder pain is interfering with daily activities, timely guidance can help. Book an appointment to explore long-term relief options.
