Shoulder Replacement Surgery – By Dr. Ankit Verma If shoulder pain is limiting your daily activities or affecting your sleep, shoulder replacement surgery might be the solution. With over 12 years of experience in Joint Replacement and Orthopedic Surgery, I’ve helped many patients regain pain-free movement and improve their quality of life. Shoulder replacement involves replacing the damaged parts of the shoulder joint with artificial implants. It’s often recommended for patients with severe arthritis, fractures, or joint degeneration caused by injury or aging. This surgery can significantly reduce pain, restore mobility, and bring back the strength to do everyday tasks with ease. When Might You Need Shoulder Replacement? Chronic Shoulder Pain: Pain that affects daily activities or disturbs sleep. Limited Range of Motion: Difficulty lifting your arm, rotating your shoulder, or doing simple tasks. Joint Damage: Caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or a severe fracture. Failed Non-Surgical Treatments: When medications, injections, and therapy no longer provide relief. Types of Shoulder Replacement Surgery Total Shoulder Replacement: Both the ball (humeral head) and socket (glenoid) of the shoulder joint are replaced. Partial Shoulder Replacement: Only the damaged part of the joint (usually the ball) is replaced. Reverse Shoulder Replacement: For cases with severe rotator cuff damage, the ball and socket positions are reversed to improve joint function. What to Expect from the Surgery Pre-Surgery Consultation: We assess your shoulder, review scans, and plan a customized treatment. During Surgery: Precise cuts and implant placement are made to ensure proper alignment and stability. Post-Surgery Recovery: Patients typically start moving their arm with support soon after surgery. Rehabilitation is key to regaining full mobility and strength. Why Choose Me? Every patient’s shoulder is unique, and so is their treatment.
