Recovery Tools (Amazon Links):
Ice Therapy:
Cryocuff - cooling ice machine: amzn.to/3LGXDjx
Big Post Operative Ice Pack:
amzn.to/3SQx7Ia The straps are a bit annoying, but good cooling. Will need to freeze flat to make sure the "beads" are equally distributed.
amzn.to/3OAv6gT for most people XL is the right size
Tens Unit for pain relief
amzn.to/48cmdAX Good unit for a reasonable price. May need to apply some additional gel to the electrodes. A lot of modes to find your sweet spot for pain control
Wedge Pillow Systems-Lunix
amzn.to/3PQISwM I reviewed this previously:
• Linux Wedge System-Pro...
Exercise Bands
amzn.to/3wcwmR7 This set it reasonably priced and has a lot of extras. It is good for recovery but may not be sturdy enough for a heavy work out
Under Desk Peddler
amzn.to/42ym3Tc Heavy duty so it does not move on the floor. Good resistance and reliability. The app is not great, but maybe it will be updated soon.

I went to PT to recover from my ORIF Olecranon surgery (snapped my elbow off in a fall) and told my Physical Therapist about the pain in my shoulder during therapy. He did offer 'Dry Needling' and it did help a lot with my pain. Went from a 6/7 pain level to about 3/4 and has stayed at that level. I do have a severe Rotator Cuff tear and will have surgery in a couple of weeks. Will be going back to the same Physical Therapist for recovery. Just my experience and know others may vary.

I had cervical spine fusion surgery in 2009. My traps were frozen between my shoulder blades and around the fusion in my neck. Nothing my Physical Therapist tried relieved the frozen cinder block like muscle. She suggested dry needling. Gradually, after two weeks of treatment, the traps fully relaxed, the spasms were resolved and the tension & pain dissipated.
Note: The PT warned me that sometimes the insertion of the needle, triggers an active muscle spasm with the muscle clinching and grabbing at the needle. That did happen once and it was really painful. The PT simply backed off the needle a bit without removing it and the active spasm and grabbing stopped.

@@rotatorcuffexpert I have joined your newsletter. That's how I found out you did a video on dry needling.
Love your videos there all very helpful
Glad you like them! Thanks Pat!
8 month ago had reverse total shoulder replacement now i have another problem top of shoulder to back shoulderblade to neck have a pinch nerve
So sorry Pat, Dry needling may help with that.
Is there anything else that can help speed up recovery after RC surgery? Are peptide injections or Platelet Rich Plasma injections worth it? thanks
Hey Joe, it is hard to know. There have been a few studies that suggest PRP given during the procedure may improve healing. Please consider joining our newsletter. Just email me at dro@mybodyprotector.com and put yes in the subject line and we will get you set up with a few tip sheets as well!
@@rotatorcuffexpert thanks will do
Doc why do patients lose ROM after rotator cuff repair surgery? what are the reasons behind it?
Hey Kiklocus, There are many reasons but I think one of the big ones is the swelling due to inflammation. Any time we do surgery we perform "controlled trauma". That trauma creates pain and inflammation. Those two create an environment where stiffness is a byproduct. Hope you are doing well.
Thank you doc, in other words " controlled stabbing " lol, just kidding...im 6 weeks post op, supraspinatus myotendenous jn repair, started rehab, @@rotatorcuffexpert
you mean " controlled stabbing" lol just kidding, thank you sir@@rotatorcuffexpert
@@rotatorcuffexpert thank you Dr. Orkut
i accidentally put my shoulder in an awkward position 9 weeks post op, felt a sharp pain and it was sore after, have i likely undone any of the surgery e.g torn the tendon from the sutures? or can the anchors withstand this?
Hey Haz, Hopefully not. Typically at 9 wks you are not completely healed, but have a good amount of healing. A lot depends on how bad your tear was and how easy/hard the repair was.

Great information, had no idea this is something so simple could help with those types of pain issues. Will definitely keep this information for possible future needs. Thank you Dr Orcutt for bring this information out! Definitely something to research for extra knowledge with respect to managing pain.
Thanks Jim, Glad it was helpful!
