Rotator Cuff Tear
A frequent shoulder injury known as a rotator cuff rupture involves harm to the group
of tendons and muscles surrounding the shoulder joint. Acute trauma may cause this injury,
which may also gradually worsen through usage. Pain, weakness, and restricted range of
motion in the shoulder are common symptoms. Partial or full rotator cuff injuries are also
possible, and severe occurrences can seriously affect everyday life and function. Treatment
options are different; for minor tears, conservative methods like physical therapy and rest are
frequently utilized, whereas more serious tears can need surgical repair. For the best recovery
results, early diagnosis and appropriate management are essential.

Rotator Cuff Tear FAQ's
A rotator cuff tear is a condition in which one or more of the tendons in the rotator cuff of the shoulder become partially or completely torn. This can lead to pain, weakness, and limited range of motion in the shoulder.
Treatment options for a rotator cuff tear can include conservative measures like rest, physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory medications. For more severe or symptomatic tears, surgical options such as arthroscopic repair or open surgery may be recommended.
The recovery process after rotator cuff surgery can vary based on the type and extent of the tear and the surgical technique used. It often involves a period of immobilization, followed by physical therapy to regain strength and range of motion. Full recovery can take several months.
