Shoulder Replacement (Partial & Total)
Shoulder replacement, whether partial or total, is a surgical procedure aimed at relieving pain and restoring function in a damaged shoulder joint. In a partial shoulder replacement, only the damaged parts of the joint are replaced with artificial components, while in total shoulder replacement, both the ball and socket of the shoulder joint are replaced with prosthetic components.
These procedures are typically recommended for individuals with severe arthritis, significant joint degeneration, or other conditions that compromise the shoulder’s normal function. The goal is to enhance mobility, alleviate pain, and improve the overall quality of life for the patient. Rehabilitation and post-operative care play crucial roles in achieving optimal outcomes for individuals undergoing either partial or total shoulder replacement.
